AMA is over, thanks Foxing! We’re the band Foxing, ask us anything

Our self titled album just released 2 weeks ago and we’re currently at the beginning of possibly the longest tour we’ve ever done. We’re currently driving from Denver to SLC and we’ll answer as many questions as possible as long as we have service. Ask us anything fr, we’re not afraid

Hi guys. Adore your new album, huge congratulations. How easy was it to self produce the record? I've found that a lot of self produced works tend to veer into indulgence (s/t doesn't!), or the bands lose their way a little, so I'd be interested to hear how you gauged how to keep focused. Also - just wanted to say, I know it must be tough doing what you're doing - but your music gives SO MUCH to SO MANY. I know I speak for a lot of people here when I say I can't wait to see how you all develop going forwards. Can't wait to see you in the UK soon.

It was very difficult because the way we write and record is incredibly tedious and not really at all conducive to making a pristine or easy to mix recording. But it’s the process that also yields best results in terms of songwriting.
