With a blend of sizzling country rockers and smooth crossover ballads, Steve Fox's self-titled album (released on AMI/Oasis*) represents the best of this gifted and prolific songwriter/performer.
His singles "Why", "Down in the Mojave" and "I Just Don't Know Anymore" have all hit the Canadian Country Charts (BDS) and his newest single "Somebody Loves Me" is being released to both Country and AC. Music directors and critics across the country have been praising Steve's Canadian-produced album.
The CD showcases Fox's provocative writing style, strong performances and features his masterful guitar work; a trademark style that threads through the 14-track album.
Artists from Diane Chase to The Poverty Plainsmen have hit Top 10 with Fox-penned songs in Canada. In fact, this Spring, Steve had 4 cuts on the Country Charts simultaneously! One of those cuts, "Daddy Won't Sell the Farm" recorded by Montgomery Gentry, netted Steve a US Gold record, reaching #13 on Billboard, and #1 on CMT. Gord Bamford has just released Steve's song "24 x 24".
Fox has collaborated with writing partners such as Cyril Rawson, Tim Taylor, Jason McCoy, Marc Jordan, Kim Tribble, Tim Krekel, Angelo, Robin Branda and Anthony Vanderburgh. Aside from the tunes penned solely by Fox, his CD includes a number of songs co-written with some of these terrific writers.
Fox shares his time equally between songwriting and performing. Steve's summer 2000 tour schedule included appearances at major Canadian country festivals including Stompede in Grand Prairie, Calgary Stampede, Big Valley Jamboree, Dauphin Music Festival, Havelock Jamboree and more. Between engagements, Steve has been recording his next album, "Small World", in Edmonton, Alberta, with a release planned through in March 2001, with a single planned for February.
