About Me

Fox Opera is a band of three. We like to rock... roll, even. Our music is sometimes catchy, sometimes incoherent, sometimes soft, sometimes loud. Cait has stagefright, Noah brings the polyrhythms and Keith only listens to jazz.
For our EPK: CLICK HERE . You can hear more songs and stuff.
This is what some very nice people have said about us:
"Fox Opera kill (each other) live: Noah Rabinovitch (drums) and Caitlin Copeland (guitar/vox) spend most of their stage time trying to mess each other up (as opposed to most bands, who do all they can to keep it together), while bassist Keith Rodger soldiers on, seemingly oblivious to the war of attrition happening around him. As a result, this indie power-trio make compelling music that is even more compelling to watch." - Sled Island 2009 Preview
"They are the aural equivalent of animal fries; a delicious mish-mash of styles all playing off of each other." - Harvey Hinton for Aurgasmicalgary, 13 March 2009
"... one of the most interesting bands in the local scene..." - Alvy Singer for FFWD Magazine, 10 January 2008
"...an energetic four-piece with a knack for combining off-kilter art-rock with up-tempo Afro-beat guitar sounds." - Jesse Locke for The Calgary Sun, 28 December 2007
"... an exciting new set of voices in Calgary music." - Mark Hamilton for Swerve Magazine, 7 December 2007
"Fox Opera's muse leads them from pretty acoustic folk jams to energetic indie rock, all pulled off with intriguing style..." - Mark Hamilton for Sled Island '07 Preview
