June 25th, 2021 – Singapore – For those keeping score, through the various songs that Foxing has previewed from their upcoming album ‘Draw Down The Moon’, they’ve covered such simple topics as death, debt, and luck. Now, as we approach the release of the St. Louis band’s most excessive and adventurous leap of faith yet, it’s time for the big one. Their latest single “If I Believed In Love” is out now for fans to listen to here smarturl.it/IIBILvisual, and fans can also pre-order the album here: smarturl.it/FoxingDDTM
“If I Believed In Love” is about when immovable, stubborn cynicism is met with unstoppable, boundless adoration. “For most of my life, I tried to spare myself the belief in love, thinking of it as a catch-all for lust and commitment,” vocalist Conor Murphy explains. “More recently, I’ve grown to respect love as, not a lazy catch-all but a force in and of itself. A force that deserves to be written about again and again until there are no humans left to write songs.”

Foxing has garnered a reputation as a band that goes big, and ‘Draw Down The Moon’ does exactly that. Here, they tackle the biggest subject possible: the universe. More specifically, “it’s about the idea of your cosmic significance,” explains Murphy. “The way you feel like a tiny speck in the grand scheme of the universe, that’s a feeling everybody has. You can get lost thinking about how small you are. ‘Draw Down The Moon’ explores how our connections to people and places and ideas are what binds us to the universe and reality.”
‘Draw Down The Moon’ came together after working for more than a year at the band’s studio in St. Louis, with guitarist Eric Hudson at the helm as producer. From there, the band took them to Georgia, where they holed up for a couple of weeks with members of Manchester Orchestra. Combining the efforts of two bands who are each known for composing such ambitious works might have been a recipe for disaster, but the collaborative process widened the scope of an already bold project.
