Up&coming: The Foxes16 January, 2007 — Hazel Gardner

Demo material review

London 4-piece The Foxes have been receiving rave reviews for their performances last year, and it looks like their popularity is set to increase in 2007 with support slots lined up left right and centre.

In a way, The Foxes slip perfectly into the indie-rock genre that has been blossoming spectacularly over the last two decades. But their retro-sounding rock and roll base gives them a more distinctive sound that could easily stand up on its own against the Razorlights of the world.

Their well-recorded demo material demonstrates excellent musicianship on all parts, and gives only a hint of how good I suspect they would sound live.

Upbeat, quite bluesy, and reminiscent of The Beatles before they started tripping, The Foxes have the ability, the confidence, and the songs to make a big fat mark on the current music scene.

What next?More by The Foxes? More up and coming? More rock?
