Johnny the Fox

Thin Lizzy

A soulful, street-smart collection of hard rock and urban funk. Gritty storytelling meets the band's signature twin-guitar harmonies in a late-night setting.

It's like a hard rock heist movie with a heart of gold and the best guitar harmonies you've ever heard.

A street-smart blend of defiant swagger and late-night romantic melancholy.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The heavy, syncopated funk groove of the bass and drums on track 6 that feels more like a heist movie than a rock song.
The sudden, sharp transition from the bluesy verse to the explosive harmonized guitar solo in Don't Believe a Word.
The vulnerable, almost whispered delivery of the opening lines in Borderline that showcases Lynott's softer side.
