About

Florian Fox is the “Swiss guy of the hour”. With his neo-traditional country style, Florian Fox (32) has played his way onto some of the most renowned festival and club stages and into the heart of the US music metropolis of Nashville in less than four years. His new country-pop EP “True Love”, to be released on February 14, 2025, will accompany him on his “True Love Tour” alongside U.S. artist Drake Milligan. Florian will kick off the year with his single “Home” to be published on January 24, 2025. He has been nominated for the prestigious Swiss cultural award “Prix Walo” in the country category on May 24, 2025 (live broadcast on national television SRF 1 from 8.00 pm CET).

In the middle of the pandemic, Florian ventured to the music metropolis of Nashville, where he recorded his first solo album “Made in U.S.A” with U.S. star Chuck Mead (BR5-49, Musicians’ Hall of Fame) and shortly afterwards recorded an EP with original members of Johnny Cash’s band. Since then, his career has taken a steep rise: In 2024, he released his first live album on Swiss national television, became a voting member of the US Country Music Association (CMA), nominee of the foremost Swiss culture award “Prix Walo” and won a Texas Sounds Int. Country Music Award for “Entertainer of the Year” as well as a certificate of recognition from U.S. Congress. In October, after an extensive tour through the States, he performed at the legendary CMA Theater of the Country Music Hall of Fame in Nashville. Florian now regularly performs on the main stages of major country music festivals and high-class venues. He has developed a stunning presence on the air and in the media (see select press on www.florianfox.com/press ).

On his new EP “True Love”, which will be released on February 14, 2025, Florian skillfully combines a powerful Nashville sound with delicate roots music elements such as banjo and dobro. The songs tell the original story of the young, but already tested, matured and well-traveled singer: In the single “Home” (to be pre-released on January 24), Florian has found his center both musically and personally and conveys the message with a stomping, very catchy tune. “Country Man” is a loving ode to his ageing father, who awakened in him his love of country music. In the funky “Toxic Fascination“, Florian remembers a fiery lover who almost threw him off his life’s track. With the ballad “True Love“, which he co-wrote with U.S. artist Drake Milligan, he makes even the most sedate of souls pine with him for one true love with a voice reminiscent of Roy Orbison. “Daphne and Till” is a modern country fairytale that proves that great love can be found even in the age of dating apps. With the honky-tonk smasher “Friday Night“, Florian rounds off the EP in the spirit of an exuberant night in the music capital of Nashville, Tennessee.
