Tisdel, creative direc- tor for the Festival, reached out to Fox, asking him to help instruct during summer camps the Festival put on last summer. Fox and a num- ber of local musicians took part in teaching at the youth songwriting camps last year, and Fox got even more ensconced in the Sisters music scene. He met other local musicians Beth Wood and Benji Nagel and began playing music with them. <I got into the scene nicely by meeting others. It9s nice to have music as a way to get to know each other,= he said. Fox had done some teach- ing and songwriting instruc- tion before, for high school boys in Washington D.C., but really delved deep into instruction last summer. <Now in Sisters I was able to really take a deep dive into teaching, and I love teaching songwriting to young people. You get to peel back the layers of the onion,= he said. <Music les- sons can be challenging at times because it is hard to explain how to do something that I take for granted I can do every day.= Fox finds teaching very rewarding and enjoys doing the work. He finds that he learns even more as he teaches and is able to re- learn/reimagine aspects of songwriting and guitar play- ing when seeing it through the eyes of young people. <It9s really nice to have the opportunity to dig deeper and be able to teach and explain songwriting,= said Fox. Fox started river guid- ing while studying cog- nitive science at Yale University, and since gradu- ating has worked on rivers in California, Oregon, British Columbia, Bhutan, and Chile. During the summer sea- son, Fox works as a river guide and does two to three trips a year, usually music- themed in some way. During the winter months, pre-pan- demic, Fox was working in Patagonia, Chile, doing raft- guiding work with Bio Bio Expeditions based in Chile. Now that Fox has put roots down in Sisters, this is his home base for the year. <Touring is back in the equation this year, which is awesome, and I will be doing some shows in Colorado and California and parts of Oregon, but my base is now in Sisters,= he said. Fox is putting out his latest record this summer 4 one that is three years in the making. He is working with a producer in Nashville and will be releasing the Grounded in your community Touring is back in the equation this year, which is awesome... — Jenner Fox first song off the record on July 14. Jenner Fox and Anna Tivel are on the bill for the second summer concert series event put on by the Sisters Folk Festival. Fox has never met Anna Tivel, but has seen her play a num- ber of times. <I9ve seen her play a few times and at one of the camps, Beth Wood per- formed one of her songs and I really loved it,= said Fox. <I think Brad was really intentional with our pairing for this show,= he said. Fox will be perform- ing with what he calls <the hyper-local band= alongside Beth Wood, Benji Nagel and Aaron Moore. Fox, Nagel and Moore have been play- ing a few local gigs together as things have begun to open up. <There is so much talent kicking around Sisters and it9s awesome to be a part of it,= said Fox.
