Josh Fox, is a seasoned ritualist, facilitator, plant-lover, and song-carrier. For over a decade, he has held space as a grief-, shadow-, and trauma-tender in his private practice and has facilitated hundreds of community healing circles throughout the Southeast and beyond (indicated by stars below):

Fox is a co-founder and long-term steward of the Sun Song Community (Human Nature Preserve) in the Ivy Creek watershed of the NC mountains, and is dedicated to the art of Village-building wherever he goes.

Fox brings music to all of his offerings for the sake of connection and healing; and writes music that uplifts the heart, honors his plant allies, and tickles the human spirit.
