About this item

EDITORIAL REVIEWS PHOX is a bunch of friends from the Midwestern circus hamlet, Baraboo, WI. They make music that straddles Feist and Monty Python. At 18 they all left town in different directions only to find them back in Wisconsin where the sextet got a house together in Madison. As prolifically documented in their online video series, PHOX rekindled their onetime A/V production house. After two years of cohabiting, PHOX beheld a demo reel of bedroom-recorded music (and home movies) that made Bon Iver and The Fray recording engineer Brian Joseph blush. Donning his producers cape (and occasional lab coat) , Joseph cheer-led the band through its debut album at April Base Studios in Eau Claire, WI. Josephs enthusiasm propelled the band through the production of more than a dozen songs that became their self titled debut.
