Derek Fox studied set design at NYU with Oliver Smith, and received an MFA in Design for the Stage. After designing summer stock at Playhouse On The Hill at Hamilton College, N.Y., and a few Off-Broadway productions including Darryl, Carrol, Kenny and Jenny by Christopher Durang at the Manhattan Theater Club, and the operetta Cinderella by James Billings, he began to record and play music professionally. His first recording, Come and Love Me, was a hit at the Paradise Garage. Derek was the musical conductor, writer and arranger for Laurie Beechman, and together they recorded an album on Atlantic Records. He played piano, sang backup, wrote the song Runaway, and co-wrote Face to Face and Stop Tellin’ Me No.
Derek is now writing new musicals for the stage. A song from the show SIMPLETOWN (In My Dream) was released in the fall of 2007 on the Christmas compilation “NOT JUST ANOTHER HOLIDAY CD”. A portion of THE CHRYSANTHEMUM EFFECT, a show featuring a piano quintet, was performed at The Composers Chamber Theater at Square One in November of 2007, featuring Christina Morrell, Erinjean Jewell, Carolyn Cole and Kila Packett, with Andrew Dixon on piano and Peter Van Derick as musical conductor. Derek is a member of ASCAP.
