With his alluring English slur wrapped around 60’s inspired pop tones, Fox Fagan is a stand out amongst his contemporaries. Born in Portsmouth, Hampshire, UK, Fagan grew up in a cold and rough neighborhood. He was first drawn into music as a child when visiting the home of his father’s friend and seeing the other children’s toy keyboards lined up for playing. By the age of 13, he was writing music for his first band and on his way to steady paying gigs throughout high school. Although, life had some changes in store for Fagan. When he turned 16, his father decided to move the family to Australia so they could lead a better life.
Not straying far from his roots of Portsmouth, Fox picked up the boxing gloves when they settled into their new home. A rough and tumble youth, he naturally excelled, in fact, so well that he was asked to join the Australian boxing team for the 2000 Olympic Games. This was the crossroads where Fox ultimately decided to pursue music as a full time career. The wise choice and diligence paid off as his band toured the sun burnt country supporting international acts and his songs achieved national airplay.
It wouldn’t be long though before the call of true love was pointing in the direction of Southern California. In June of 2008, Fox packed his bags to chase a girl and found himself living in a place where his music could be nurtured and reach its full potential. Los Angeles proved to be an inspirational place for Fox Fagan and the vibrations of the city lead to some of the most poetic works thus far in his career. Such writing can be heard in his original songs; “Wouldn’t Change a Thing” and “Brothers”.
In support of his debut EP "Never Fall In Love With A Stranger", Fagan has performed extensively in Los Angeles and toured the East Coast of the U.S. from Florida to New York gracing the stage at venues such as Rockwood Music Hall, Eddie’s Attic and the illustrious and somewhat treacherous, Churchill’s Pub. The EP, feature's Fagan’s tasty brand of indie pop and a British swagger reminiscent of the old English punk rockers. This sound, Fagan credits to the method of recording live and never in more than a few takes in order to capture the real energy of a musician and retain the essence of the art.
