20-something Susan

So I'm in the grocery store last night picking up 2 items for my father...bacon and hearing-aid batteries (#10, 12 pack, the good brand). I get to the checkout and in an effort to be efficient I got my debit card out before the 20-something year old brunette even swiped the first item. I'm wearing my black t-shirt under a retro long-sleeve with snaps, a ball cap and a 'friendship bracelet' made by Zoe (my 6 year old). I think I look very 'mod'. As the 20-something begins to bag the bacon I honed in on the card swiper and analyzed it for my own accuracy when processing this payment. I followed the instructions and swiped...at exactly the moment when (let's call her) Susan made a comment to me about her bagging intentions for the batteries. Now, I followed most of what she said about the secondary, small bag being in the larger bag but I thought maybe there was more to it than I realized and again, my brain was working on my finances at the swiper so some of what she said got lost in the translation and although I'm sure I didn't care...before I could stop myself I said "what?". I said... "what?" 20-something Susan, being of great deductive skills quickly adapted to the situation she found herself in, did a high-speed scan of my grey hair and weathered face, held up the bag of batteries and she raised her voice level from the 3-4 it had been at to an 8 or 9... and she used her very best enunciation when she declared: "I'M PUTTING THE BATTERIES IN THIS LITTLE BAG!" She shook the bag a little too, to help me understand better and in case my eyesight could also be failing. I got the message..

. I tried to look confused as I smile at her. Then I took dad his damn batteries...and bacon. jefferson

I'm tired

I wonder if anyone is listening to me typing. Played my first show in quite some time last night and enjoyed it. Thanks to those who made the journey. I appreciate the look of interest from time to time. Be safe. See you again someday.

Need Your Help and NEW TRACKS!!

Hello everybody,
I need help. I'm working on a new full-length release (or 3) and I'm offering a song to show you what I'm doing...and as a fundraiser for the project(s). I am planning to go many extra miles on these, can't do it without support from someone, and you're my record company so I'm asking.

What I'm asking for to make this dream happen is the usual $1 ...for 'Burn The Ground' but I'll take MORE if you like. Download it below and tell a friend please ;)

Thank you sincerely...and enjoy!
Forever indebted to you all
Jefferson Fox

ClaudiaLand - 6/2/2011 - Live Solo Album

Recently, on a trip down to Florida for 3 shows I got to stop over in Knoxville, Tn at the home of Claudia Linse. ClaudiaLand House Concerts are fabulous events hosted by a powerful soul who has a tendency to have fun. Claudia made me feel so very at home I decided to throw some mics up before the show and capture the event. Not the first time I've done that, but I liked the results well enough to share. This 17 song collection may not stay posted on the interworld forever so if you like em, download. Thanks to Claudia and everyone who came out for the show. My favorite tracks were Goodnight Carolina, Don't Go There, City Life and Big Top...but Bait And Switch, Sorry (never before recorded), and Nobody's Fault turned out lovely as well.

Chronicles Release Party clip

We didn't document this event at all (I suck), but I got this video from someone at the show...and I'm about to see if you can actually embed a facebook video OFF of facebook.

New Video in the works Need Your Help

Hi everybody,
In the continued pursuit of making things difficult, Tim Gill and I have decided to make a music video for a song off my new record through the eyes of the American Soldier. We're not filming this one...we need video footage that was taken by U.S. Armed Forces members, particularly soldiers who served during time of conflict. That means, the war on terror, Desert Storm, Vietnam, Korea...any time of conflict.

We know that there's plenty of footage out there but we need it. Please tell your friends, soldiers and neighbors about this and have them email any footage or questions to timandjefferson@gmail.com

Thanks again.
We're eager to get this underway

Jefferson Fox Performing "My Brother's Keeper" live

last weekend I was fortunate to be able to perform with Anastasia Gonzales at a film night in Savannah Georgia that happened at The Muse Art Warehouse. Charlie Kent made this trip with us, we stayed with Tim Gill, partied with the cast and crew of My Brother's Keeper and just generally had a hell of a good time. Here's what the live version sounded like that night. John Guiberteau was on hand and shot this. I'd never met John before that night but I'm glad that I have now. He caught a very nice moment for us that I'll treasure for a long time. Thanks all!
