Jim Fox . . . . . a hairy man! . . . . . NME ......................................................
When Jim is not performing as a solo artist he is usually working hard as part of MADRA RUA ...............................................................................
During the 1990s, Madra Rua were probably one of the hardest working acts touring the UK, playing at Irish Clubs and Bars, folk clubs and festivals, often playing 5 or 6 gigs in a week. After a number of recordings and many thousand miles of travelling, circumstances led to members pursuing different directions. Then, last year, founder members Ian Thomas & Jim Fox decided to get together and play some concerts and have been continuing to do so whenever the opportunity arises. ...................................................................................... AND REMEMBER, YOU CAN BUY JIM FOX MUSIC BY CLICKING THIS LINK Jim Fox on iSOUND.COM ...................................................................
Its hard to pigeon hole the music of Madra Rua but here are two singer-songwriters performing their own and other peoples songs with a hint of Irish, Reggae, Country and Soft-Rock and a fair bit of humour ....................................................................
Two guitars, two voices and a lot of balls .............................................

Hi JIM FOX, I Draw Slow are playing The Cobblestone, Smithfield in Dublin on Wednesday 24th June, supported by the amazing Thomas Kitt. Doors are at 8.30 and admission is €10, a small price to pay to see the citys two premier acoustic acts don't you agree? On the off chance you disagree, come down on wednesday next to the Cobblestone, Smithfield Dublin and we'd be happy to discuss it.

If you have walked in the heart of the Greenwood and have bathed in the light of its living force remember what you have felt; and whenever you pass a tree whether it stands alone in a wilderness of human making or in the depth of woodland, give a moment of your time to listen to its voice. For in many parts of the land the trees are dying only the hearts that know something of the true wisdom can save them. (Anon)
Time to welcome in the Summer, health and happiness.
Si usted ha paseado por el centro del bosque verde y se ha bañado en la luz de su fuerza viva recuerde lo que usted ha sentido; y siempre que usted pase al lado de un árbol si está parado solamente en un yermo de fabricación humana o en la profundidad del bosque, dé un momento de su tiempo para escuchar su voz. Porque en muchas partes de la tierra los árboles se están muriendo solamente los corazones que tengan algo de la sabiduría verdadera pueden salvarlos. (Anón)
