RedFox was formed when folk duo Jono Townsend and Tim Loten relocated to Montreal and joined up with vocalist/fiddle virtuoso Daphnee Vandal. After months of honing their sound and rehearsing in apartment living rooms, the band had a vision, but was having difficulty finding their missing piece. They were determined and it was time to expand. Hoping to achieve a broader, more dynamic sound, the trio reached out to experienced metal drummer and long-time university friend Neumann to join on drums, as well as prog-rock bassist Sam Robinson to complete the outfit. Their sound was transformed into the ambient high-energy experience that we come to know as RedFox, who retain their acoustic roots while also exploring and blending more electric sounds. The group can trace their influences back to bands such as Phoebe Bridgers, Half Moon Run, and Radiohead.

Since its birth, the band has put forth two EPs, one single and a full-length album entitled Stranger Love. The first self-titled EP features "Calling Out", a high energy single juxtaposed with a much more vulnerable side of the band in a track called "A Song for the Little Ones". The second, Recovery, released in 2019 which features "Breaking Down", "Hurry Up" and finishes with their powerful and emotional track "Stay". Their single "Better Now" was released in February 2020 on all online platforms, with an accompanying music video that was filmed in the iconic Brockville railway tunnel. With support from the Canada Council for the Arts, RedFox released their first debut full-length album in October 2021, and have been looking forward to bringing it overseas to the United Kingdom for the first time in June 2023!
