Christopher Guard has been writing songs since he was a boy; he wrote songs and music for C4’s award-winning Pond Life and won the Brit Foundation UK Song-Writing contest Rock category with Attention Deficit Girl. His songs have been played on BBC daytime Radio as well as many international indie stations.
Leapfrogtown, Guard’s London-based band, were formed in 2013 and quickly amassed a fan-base. Their debut album Dreaming in Public received rave reviews.
What the Fox are a reincarnation of Leapfrogtown. They’ve gigged as a duo, a trio and recently as a full band to a sell-out crowd at the wondrous Half Moon, Putney, followed by a vibey night at the Mau Mau Bar, Portobello Road. They recently recorded a ‘live’ album in Cornwall
