The Stone Foxes live at Amoeba Music SF July 20, 2010

"The four San Franciscans in The Stone Foxes have an energetic style that's rooted in swampy, foot-stomping blues-rock. Their freshly released sophomore album, Bears and Bulls, tackles ambitious arrangements with diverse moods ranging from acoustic twang to thunderous electric-guitar riffs." -- NPR
It’s not just great song writing, warm guitars, a nut-tight rhythm section, and the occasional blues harp riffs that make The Stone Foxes’ second album, Bears & Bulls, so good. The Bay Area four-piece (consisting of brothers Shannon and Spence Koehler, Aaron Mort, and Avi Vincour) has captured something else on this recording that makes the whole thing huge, and very, very cool.

Listeners sense it right away. There’s a genuineness that’s rare and refreshing, and it’s something that can’t be achieved simply by grabbing a couple of vintage axes and plugging into a stack of tube amps. The Stone Foxes may be influenced by the greats of the late '60s and early '70s like The Band, Bob Dylan, and Led Zeppelin, but they never sound like they’re trying to be anything but exactly who they are. Their style of blues-rock stands on its own.
