LIMERICK rockers Fox Jaw announce their return to live action this year with a brand new single and video.
‘Do You Want It All?’ is a brooding rock and roll number led by fine vocals from Ronan Mitchell. The video features loads of Limrock cameos. It introduces us to a sleepy Limerick dive bar and bingo hall until Fox Jaw swagger into the room then cue a Rodriguez/Tarantino style bloodbath.
Fox Jaw formed ten years ago and sum it up best telling us it has been a decade of “over 300 shows, 8 Singles, 5 Vinyls Releases, 2 Albums, 2 EPs, countless festival appearances, TV appearances, Magazine Covers, Music Video Awards, Album Of The Year Awards, and only one flat tyre.”
Praised as “true hidden gems” by State.ie, 2014 saw the release of the second album, ‘Ghost’s Parade’ recorded with producer Dave ‘Skippy’ Christophers (Josh Ritter, Whipping Boy, Mundy) and engineer Owen Lewis (Flogging Molly, Snow Patrol, REM), and mastered at Wav Mastering by Richard Dowling (David Bowie, Foo Fighters, Interpol).
This summer Fox Jaw will share the stage with hip hop legends The Sugarhill Gang at this year’s BARE in the Woods Festival, taking place at Garryhinch Woods, Co Laois, on June 11-12. The Limerick band are on the bill along with the New York rap pioneers, reggae legend Natty Wailer, King Kong Company and The Pale.
Fox Jaw with special guests Fonda and Kiernan McMullan play Dolan’s on Saturday April 16.
