ABOUT THE ARTIST
With an extensive background in gospel and a lifelong passion for soul music, Betty Fox has come a long way from her southern roots to headlining festivals and captivating thousands with her raw swagger and unwavering talent. Once the 2015 representative of the Suncoast Blues Society, an International Blues Challenge Finalist, and 5 time winner of Creative Loafing’s Best of the Bay, she is now recieving accolades on an international scale for her 5 star debut, “Peace In Pieces” topping the Roots Music Report Charts and getting rave reviews from critics and fans alike. One thing is for sure, Fox is truly proving herself a force to be reckoned with.
After honing her craft for 20 years, her debut album, “Too Far Gone”, put her on the international map as a songwriter and vocalist and had the critics from American Blues Scene Magazine to Blues Revue Magazine singing her praises! Her Sophomore album, “Slow Burn” was released in June 2015, and received rave reviews from Blues DJ’s, critics, and enthusiasts around the world! Her third and most recent album “Peace in Pieces” was released January 10, 2020 and has been hailed as a 5 star national debut, hitting number 1 on the Blues RMR charts in it’s third week.

Elmore Magazine gives it an A rating with a 91/100 and Glide Magazine insists that if this album isn’t her breakout success, it would be a “grave injustice”. Check out the new album HERE.
