Peter Fox is an award winning composer, arranger, producer and multi-instrumentalist. He began studying classical piano at age 7, and soon took up guitar, which remains his second major instrument. He studied theory, composition, and orchestration with composer and Appalachian music specialist Philip Rhodes at Carleton College, where he graduated Cum Laude with a degree in Filmmaking and Music.

Peter has continued to learn new instruments and formally study a variety of music. He studied Indonesian music in Ubud, Bali where he learned Tingklik, a bamboo xylophone that is used to accompany Wayang Kulit (shadow puppet) performances. He studied sitar in Varanasi, India with Dr. Raj Bhan Singh, Dean Emeritus of the School of Music of the Benares Hindu University. In Greece, he learned the bouzouki and rembetico, traditional Greek soul music. In addition, Peter plays bass, mandolin, accordion, harmonica, saxophone, and organ. This command of a wide variety of instruments and authentic experience with music from both East and West is reflected in the music that he writes and produces.
