Power to the Purple, my Purple Foxers!  Josh Friedman (Purple Fox to those in the know) here, and have the exciting update for PFatHJ music and all it's fixings! 

I am so thankful to Bret Martin and Jim Corbett, through the non profit Mr. Music Foundation and Ukes4Kids, for their generous donation of 20 ukuleles for the school.  It was a blast to donate my time to teach our version of the 4 B's, and then feature them in our first School Assembly show #BeKind, please check out our video! And if you have kids in elementary school, please pass it on to bring us to your local school!

You know, Purple Foxers, I have been so busy working on the album, that I totally forgot to fill you all in on all the good things happening!  I will try to be brief and focused.  We have launched our Indiegogo Campaign, and looking to raise $15,000 for everything we are investing in this summer for the band.  We have some great rewards, I promise it will be well worth the 5 minutes:

and if you don't have the 5 minutes right now, here is the skinny...

1) finishing the album in time to submit for the upcoming 61st Grammy Awards

2) Nashville in August to spread the Purple at CDBaby's DIY music conference

3) printing the 2nd edition of our children's book

4) pressing our 2nd album "The Something of Love" on tie-dye vinyl

5) finishing the next 2 episodes of Afternoon Snack

We are playing a ton of free live shows this summer, please check our gig list and join in the fun!

yours,

Purple Fox Josh

My Purple Foxers!  Have you seen our latest music video?  I know we aren't at a million views, but 10,000 views made the cheese fall off my cracker!  Allakazoo!

Apparently we are getting popular in Venezuela.  :-D  Perhaps a tour of the Americas is in our future!  In the meantime, a tour of your living room with a Live Like a Champion dance party might happen right about now (at least in our living room).....

Hello all you Purple Foxers!  What did you do over the holiday break?  Did you go somewhere fun?  I was editing our latest music video (which is almost to our release!) and hanging out with Jude and Jozy reading a ton of books while we were sick.  At least we had good company, right?  Well, it's a rainy day today, so I won't be able to do much playing outside.  

We got a great review of our latest album by MrJeff2000:
