Could you tell me a few things about yourself?
We’re a band from Greenville, SC. We have always loved making music, but we started officially making music in 2020. In 2021, we got together and started releasing music on streaming platforms under the name “Lost Foxes.”
What strengths do you have that you believe make you a great musician?
We believe that creativity is the overarching thing that a musician needs. The same goes for any kind of art. Specifically for music, you also need to be able to create your own unique and personal sound. Something that you hear and immediately know “Oh, it’s (artist name here)” Creating that notability can really help you as a musician.
What does music mean to you?
Music for us is a way to express emotion and feeling in a way words alone can’t. Music has an insane ability to interact with emotions. I remember listening to a song that I don’t even relate to and feeling every single word they sang. Music is a very powerful thing.
What could you tell me about your new single, ” Long Ride ”?
This song was written about my bandmates, the journey that we’re on, and how I wouldn’t want anyone else to be by my side.
What is it about music that makes you feel passionate?
Music can be either a mask or a guide. The mask kind is the type of music that distracts you from your problems. The guide is the self-expression side of music. The guide kind of music can be a significant help for people who are going through the same things as you. We strive to help people with everything we do, music or otherwise.
What are your plans for the future?
Currently, we’re working on our self-titled album. We will have new music out soon!
What important message you would like to share with our readers?
While making music as an indie band (or anything really), you realize that everyone else seems like they’re doing better than you are. They’re getting signed, they’re playing shows, they’re featured with this artist, etc. One thing you have to remember is you can’t compare yourself to others. Comparing yourself will only lead to burnout and loss of motivation. As humans, this is a natural thing to do, and it’s not going to be easy to just stop. We still fall victim to comparison frequently. Whenever you find yourself comparing, just remember that they’re different from you. You should only be comparing yourself to yourself because that’s the only thing you can change. You can always improve yourself. Stay laser-focused on one-upping yourself, and you’ll do amazing.
What do you feel is the best song that you have ever released and why?
Oof, that’s a hard one. Long Ride definitely has a special place in all of our hearts, just because it’s something that we can really stand behind. People who support you in your life are essential. Whether it’s your friends, family, or the random stranger you see every day at the park, we all need someone to support us.
