Biography

Named after a Victorian children’s game, What Time Is It, Mr. Fox? time-travels from the 1960s soul of New Orleans to Medieval France before landing in Tin Pan Alley NYC. The ensemble delivers their own brand smoky cabaret, neo-soul and acoustic noir. Whether stripped down for acoustic coffeehouses and living room concerts or immersive multimedia shows in clubs and theaters, Mr. Fox brings honest emotional authenticity to every performance. What Time Is It, Mr Fox? began as a duo when singer-songwriter 3rian King and violinist and trumpeter Nathan Cohen performed in a New Year’s Eve concert in 2004. The band quickly became a staple in Boston’s underground cabaret scene, blending music with elements of circus, dance, and performance art. The lineup also features Dennis Monagle on drums, Renée Dupuis on voice, keys, and melodica, and Joe Cardoza on upright bass. In April 2015 the band toured through the American South, performing to enthusiastic crowds in living rooms, theatres, and art spaces. In 2014 and 2015 their circus show "Gravitational Fool" was featured in the Afterglow Festival in Provincetown MA, founded by Quinn Cox and John Cameron Mitchell and with the American Repertory Theater (ART) in July 2017. In summer 2019, the band premiered their new multimedia animated musical "Medusa" at Museum of Science, Boston with a completely sold out run and rave reviews. The soundtrack album is forthcoming with the first single "Devil Vs. Scarecrow" available now on Spotify
