“I never thought that I could ever be considered a Blues singer. My heart has always been in Country.

While apart of the duo GoldFox the band found themselves in a whirlwind of attention after joining together. They received rave reviews from some of the best and well known industry professionals. But as many raves as they have received they were in tune enough with one another that they realized that there love and adoration of one another was not enough to keep the flame as a duo burning. Thus both members of the group decided to branch out remaining friends and collaborators.

Tonya Fox has been singing most of her life and has been writing music as long as she could remember. As a young girl she grew up listening to such great artists as Loretta Lynn, Hank Williams and Johnny Cash while spending time with her grandfather. In her later years her inspirations were Tanya Tucker, Reba McEntire, and Wynonna. But for Tonya her grandfather was the driving force in her passion for Country Music. ”My grandfather was an all America man, from his head to his toes he was Country,” she tells us. Growing up Tonya was exposed to all types of music. She relays that her family was not too picky about the music they listened to, so she listened to almost everything. Country stole her heart and she has been stuck like glue every since. This young lady has a voice that is unstoppable, and as far as she is concerned she has placed herself in a “learning status” a Novice of sorts. In her eyes singing is apart of who she is and her reality is every note. As modest as she is, there is no denying the talent that is there and the talent that has yet been tapped. But time will tell and the world will soon come to find that Tonya Fox as a member of GoldFox will be one of those that you are simply drawn to.
