MATTHEW FOX
“Guitarist and singer Matthew Fox's music is steeped in country blues,
bluegrass and Texas swing. Equal parts originals and traditional songs, the
album has a toe tapping, easygoing, front-porch vibe. Fox's playing is solid,
and he invites a few choice guests along for the ride, including Peter Ostroushko
on fiddle and mandolin”.

Bluegrass), Blues, some Jazz", says Matthew. "I love the folk stuff
