Award winning 21st Century contemporary singer-songwriter Chris Fox is an independent musician spanning the roots lexicon of Folk, Americana, Country and Blues. A genre defying troubadour, audiences are enthralled by his rich vocals, complex guitar playing, and loop pedal alchemy finding Chris to be humorous & thought provoking in equal measures. His naturally laid back, unostentatious style creates the perfect ambience for an intimate and inclusive live experience drawing listeners in with tales of the everyday and the unexpected.
Chris released his first album 'From the Shadows' in 2019. Then in September '22 Chris released his second album 'In Plain Sight' to critical acclaim. His music over the years has been aired widely both internationally and on radio stations across the UK including BBC Radio and has seen press support from titles such as Folk Radio UK, RnR magazine, Irish Music Magazine and Americana UK, while gaining a nomination for Best Male Artist of the Year from FATEA, 2023.
Born and raised in Cambridgeshire, Chris Fox cut his teeth playing for pints in local drinking establishments along the river Great Ouse in 2014. Fast forward to an award-winning singer songwriter, Chris has performed at Folk Festivals, Clubs and Theatres in the UK and Europe as Headliner, in Double Bills and support for major acts on the UK Folk Scene.
Now playing headline gigs, on his way from there to now Chris supported some of the greats including Peter Knights Gigspanner Trio, Peter Knight & John Spiers, Jim Moray, Trials of Cato, Boo Hewerdine, Brooks Williams, Lucy Ward, Grannies Attic, Kathryn Roberts & Sean Lakeman, Edwina Hayes and Ange Hardy. Chris played Cambridge Folk festival 3 times including a packed out set in The Den, as well as the Ely, Purbeck, Holmfirth, Black Deer and British Country Music Festivals to name just a few. Runner up in the Bury St Edmunds song competition Chris went on to win the Sheringham Showcase to open for Fairport Convention at Folk on The Pier 2018 and the Lichfield Folk Festival song writing competition 2019
Further developing his career Chris has formed a duo with John Parker (Nizlopi, Jackie Oates) on double Bass and a trio with the addition of Toby Shaer (Cara Dillon, John KcKusker) on Fiddle. The 2022 Trio Album Launch of In Plain Sight was SOLD OUT.
Support is from the Oxfordshire duo Wednesday's Wolves.
