Fastest Fox Alive

Fastest Fox Alive (FFA) is a musical project born from a need to make music and a love of collaboration. Chris moved from L.A. to Boise in March 2020, just as COVID hit and everything shut down. A year later, desperate for musical inspiration, he posted a Craigslist ad that caught Frank’s eye. An Idahoan, Frank was also looking for a new musical project. They met at a local nonprofit studio, where Frank played a riff he’d been developing. Chris improvised a melody with the words “Almost Ready,” just as they appear now on the title track. They quickly realized they’d found something special and agreed to begin a musical journey together. Working through parts and pieces from the past while creating new ideas, they found a sound that moves around alternative pop rock. Their songs reflect the diverse influences that have shaped the band’s sonic identity, drawing inspiration from Counting Crows, Keane, Third Eye Blind, and Death Cab for Cutie, with their own modern twist. FFA’s lyrics explore relatable, thought-provoking themes, including the intricacies of relationships, self-discovery, and the emotional roller coaster of the human experience. Through introspective songwriting, they take listeners on a journey through heartache, love, grief, and hope, reminding us to live for each moment, since none of us make it out of here alive.
