FOX Japan

FOX Japan is a band from West Virginia that makes catchy, quirky indie rock songs about television, religion and consumerism.



FOX Japan (the name has nothing to do with the TV network) has existed under various names since 1993, although its members' average age is still only twenty-five. It's now a long-distance band, however. Andrew, Sam, and Pete live in Morgantown, West Virginia, where they work at a hospital, a mental health clinic, and a non-profit, respectively; Charlie is a grad student in music composition at the University of California - San Diego.



The band has repeatedly toured the East Coast and Midwest, playing venues such as Lit Lounge and The Trash Bar in New York; 8x10 in Baltimore; The Fire in Philadelphia; The Red & the Black, DC9 and the Velvet Lounge in Washington DC; Bela Dubby in Cleveland; Merlin's in Buffalo; and Cal's in Chicago.
