​Tony Fox

"Born in the spring,

Rock from a quarry

Descendant of

The Rythym Kings 

Here is my story:

Raised from the love

of my family and friends;

Takes much abrasion

to polish a gem!"

 

~ Tony Fox ~



Tony Fox is no stranger to the music scene, having played on professional stages for years with Benny and the Jets, and many others.  He was named "Hardest Working Drummer in Detroit,"  and in 2015,  was mentioned in the Detroit Legends' Hall of Fame with the infamous Benny and the jets.   His family has a long history in the business, well known in Detroit as the "Fox Rythym Kings of Detroit", from the 1920's.   His rock solid rythym and experience has been a driving force behind the Bandura Gypsies.  With a flair for showmanship, an ease of connecting with the audience, and an exciting style of drumming, Tony Fox is the rock foundation for the Gypsies.  It was through his connections and experience that Shawn Elizabeth entered the music scene, and it was through his encouragement, point of view, and excitement for life that many of the Gypsy songs were written.  You will likely enjoy his taste for supporting vocals, which help express the emotion of the songs and bring a certain real flavor the the story in the song.    Wherever Tony Fox is playing, there will definately be a story being told.  When the sticks start flying, the stories will unfold!
