About Me

Well, it has happened. We probably should have written this a while ago, but for those of you didn't already know, we have decided to call it a day as a fully functioning band. A hard thing to do, but for the best we believe. But what happens in the future remains to be seen. Is Jade Fox dead or is it just sleeping? All will be revealed... or will it? Do you really care? In the mean time, thanks to anyone who has supported us in any way over the years and to all the Foxes and Foxettes out there. You know who you are.
For those of you who are interested to know what else we're doing Dave and I have a new band called The Invisible with our friend Leo Taylor. We have recorded an album with the great Matthew Herbert which is due out on his label Accidental in September. Check out our myspace page for gigging information and other news.
Skinner has been busy working on the new Elmore Judd album Insect Funk, in both a writing and playing capacity. It's due out in the summer. I've heard most of it and it's brilliant.
Nick has been touring with the Cinematic Orchestra and also organising and writing for the F-IRE Collective big band. If you haven't heard his own band Clown Revisited then you can discover their unique and amazing music on their album Flashes of a Normal World.
I am also playing on the new Polar Bear album which will be out some time this year.
That's all for now. Tom

Fox in the studio

Some of the questions that we Foxes have been asked quite a bit are 'do you have an album out?' or 'where can I get your stuff?'. So hopefully this should clear things up. We don't have an album out y...

Last four gigs... a brief summary.

Thanks to everyone who came to any of our gigs over the last week. Our night, Sound and Fury, that we run with The Dolly Daggers at Nambucca was wicked. It was looking shaky when water started cascadi...
