Foxing

With a passionate style that's also introspective, Foxing operate at the crossroads of Midwest emo, post-rock, and pensive indie rock. Bringing together active members of the St. Louis, Missouri music scene of the early 2010s who had backgrounds playing in these styles, math rock, and more, they expanded upon guitar-oriented fare with orchestral instruments beginning with their full-length debut, 2013's The Albatross. The Matt Bayles-produced Dealer followed in 2015, before the band took a synth rock direction on 2018's Nearer My God and were assisted by the Grammy-winning John Congleton on 2021's stylistically diverse Draw Down the Moon. Embracing the uneven and cognizantly acerbic, the Foxing LP followed in 2024.
