Trick The Fox are a trio with an interesting history. Originally from Wales,
Ren - who had already been writing and performing from young age - moved
to Bath after years of playing dingy pub gigs. He soon found Charlie, an
equally passionate musician who quickly became his bandmate and best friend.
Together, they were part of a few bands and busked frequently, attracting the
attention of many important music industry moguls. After beginning to gig in
London, the boys went in search of a drummer to complete their band. Charlie
and Ren came across Tommy when he represented Ealing with his drumming skills
in the Adidas 'Take The Stage' Campaign. They instantly clicked and the band
has been gigging together all over London ever since, building on their ever-growing
fanbase.
The band come as a
breath of fresh air in today's music world; whilst copycat pop artists struggle
to be seen over the other auto-tuned wannabes of YouTube and talentless reality
show hopefuls, Trick The Fox have gone their own way. Influenced by a diverse
range of artists such as Eminem, Bob Marley, The Police and Red Hot Chili
Peppers, they have composed their own mash-ups of well-known hits across a
variety of genres, as well as producing original songs - writing and recording
the lyrics in addition to the accompanying music (an excellent combination
of guitar, drums, bass, double bass, piano and beat-box).
Due to the technical
nature of the way in which music is recorded today, many skillful musicians and
vocalists lose their 'voice' as producers so frequently feel the need to autotune
and digitally enhance music to make it commercially viable. Trick The Fox are a
group that prove that talent alone can take you very far - they have been
spotted by top music industry experts whilst busking on London streets, leading
to a great level of interest from record labels. However, before settling with
any label, the boys' aim to work on their sound and continue to gig as much as
possible. Currently, they are managed by electronic dance duo, Basement Jaxx's
manager and have recorded an album with Plan B's producers - an
incredible feat for a band that has been together only a matter of months.
Having already been compared to the likes of The Police, Rizzle Kicks, Plan B
and Jamie T, it won't be long before the band are showcasing their talents
across the UK and Europe.
