PEG: Interviews NYC Shoegaze Band The Foxfires


The Foxfires are a Shoegaze band from the NYC metro area who formed in 2013. Since forming, the band has cultivated their own unique sound and subgenre called Seagaze, combining the psychedelic nature of shoegaze, the energy and dance of pop-rock and post-punk, and the oceanic ambience of surf rock with a positive message. The Foxfires’ music and messages stem from Bruce Lee’s adaptability, fluidity, and positivity.


The Foxfires have performed over 450 shows across the East Coast, South, and Midwest and released five singles, two EPs, and one full length record. Their most recent release, a double single, Don’t Give Up/Choose Love, garnered positive press from Paste, Impose, Patch, and many others. The Foxfires released three new singles called the Brooklandia trilogy between February and May 2019 with producer, Jesse Cannon, in Brooklyn. Each single was released on a notable date: Slowdive with Valentine's Day, Matchless Part Two on March 21 for Spring Equinox, and Brooklandia on May 4 for International Star Wars Day.


The Foxfires’ music has been featured on radio across the United States as well as parts of Europe. They also have been licensed to the Discovery Networks, Homemade Soul Music, Audiosparks, Roadtrip Nation, NASCAR, and Bring Your Own Board Music Libraries.


The Foxfires captivate live audiences with their energetic live shows that instill positive energy in their ever-growing crowds.
