If you've ever wondered what it would sound like if an atomic bomb the size of a black hole exploded backwards inside the bowels of the universe.. .well get ready to find out with the smooth sounds of Foxycock. On their debut album, Black Music For White People released in September 2005, Foxycock embark on a trans-galactic musical journey of comedic catharsis to bring the lost power chord back to earth, destroy the powers that be through peaceful means and score some space weed. The music of Foxycock projects the listener through a one-hour sonic wormhole of infinite awkward possibilities into a universe on the brink of destruction. Both juvenal and sophisticated, inspiring and offending, the New York Times says, "Foxycock answers the ultimate question of life!" Taking on such timely and controversial subjects as trans-racial eroticism, 9/11 nostalgia, 80's music obsession, internet porn addiction, gay children's songs and reptilian humanoid government leaders, Foxycock's music, though not for the weak of heart, is sure to provoke, offend and/or entertain you.

Hard Core Pop/Rock Satire/Political Bossa Nova/Comedic Catharsis sure to provoke, entertain and maybe offend you.

Chuck Crowe is an upbeat singer/songwriter based in Culver City, California. His organic 'Coyote Pop' style floats in the nether-genre between Pop-Rock, Alt-Country, and Americana. His musical style has been compared to the Eagles, James Taylor, Poco, and America.

He ground out his early years in numerous cover bands ranging from Hard Rock to Motown, from New Wave to Classic Rock, from Punk to Pop. In the early 80s he played bars and clubs up and down the East coast. He returned to his native Southern California in 1988 and took up work as a sideman to many popular Los Angeles-area artists including: Nick Pyzow, Kerry Getz, Anny Celsi, Joel Pelletier, and Ileana Burdine.

The answer is: "what you call Pop-Rock that meets Alt-Country at Americana's house." the question: "What is 'Coyote-Pop'?" It's fun, it's organic, it's good with wine.

Jason Knight is originally from Indiana and spent pretty much all of his life growing up in one little town in the central part of the state. A desire to explore acting originally brought him to LA, but after a few years of study and a little bit of theatre, he began writing songs. And that’s when he felt like he had found his “thing” in life. A few more years later, Jason has written quite a little catalogue of songs, five of which he picked to record for this EP.

It’s a very accessible, classic, poppy sound that Jason’s songs have which lends to them an instant likeability for the listener.
