His quartet combines deep grooves with sophisticated contrapuntal lines, creating a striking musical collage that is stirring, visceral, imaginative and intellectually satisfying. Fox mines the rich resources of jazz and classical literature, crafting an expanding repertoire of original compositions seamlessly wedded to the undeniable of Afro-Cuban jazz. His inventive blend marches boldly towards new sounds, effortlessly, 'confounding the genre police' (Downbeat)
