FOXES: What inspires you guys to write music/lyrics? Are songs brought on my real events or feelings personal to you? Ignacio: Yes. A lot of the songs and lyrics are about events, struggles, happenings. Songwriting is a personal thing. If someone can relate to it then that’s great. FOXES: Do you remember the first record you ever bought or that was given to you as a gift? Ignacio: First cassette I ever got was the Ghostbusters soundtrack. First CD was “How to Multiply” it was a hip hop tutorial about math. First record was this band called Papa Do Run Run. They were a Beach Boys cover band I saw when I was a kid. FOXES: Do you remember the first concert you ever went to? Ignacio: WAR at Pomona Fairgrounds. FOXES: Talk about your role in Lollipop Records. You are one of the main founders, right? Ignacio: Yeah. Lolipop is a label and a recording studio. We put out stuff we like and music we feel the world needs to hear. I produce albums in the studio along with my partner and good friend Wyatt Blair.
FOXES: Who is your #1 hero? Ignacio: My sister Cat. FOXES: Are you into film, and if so, what would you recommend someone to watch? Ignacio: I like film, but I’m not anyone to recommend anything. I spend my extra time listening to records. FOXES: Do you have a favorite spot to grab a bite to eat in LA? Ignacio: Señor Fish on Sunset in Echo Park has a killer happy hour on tacos. FOXES: What’s next for you guys? Ignacio: We’ve just put out our 3rd album “Days of Yesteryear” so we will be doing some touring in the states and Europe this year. We never stop writing so we will keep making tunes as long as we can.
