Foxfire is a three-piece heavy rock band that is at the forefront of a new genre known as "stoner punk rock". Formed in Atlanta GA in 2004, the band consists of Rachel Collins (guitar, vocals), Kris Hale (drums, vocals), and Stephen Carrington (bass, vocals). They have released a self-titled EP, a full-length CD (Early Rising) , and are currently planning their second album.

Formation and History
Foxfire was formed in 2004 when Rachel Collins and Kris Hale began playing together, this being the first band for each of them. Then in 2006, after the first two bass players hadn't panned out, they found a workable partner in Stephen Carrington, who had achieved some notoriety in local bands Pickman's Model, Plaster, Qualone , and Armazilla. After many shows around the southeast, they felt ready to record a demo of the songs they had been writing. They were pleased with the results, and decided to release it as a self-titled EP in 2007.

Inspired by the public response to their shows and their EP, they wrote new material and were ready to record again in early 2008, this time recording at the legendary Athens GA studio The Bakery with the help of engineer Joel Hatstat. Mastering for this album was done by acclaimed engineer/producer Rodney Mills, who also mastered their self-titled EP. The first single from Early Rising, "Daddy's A Rock Star", received many positive reviews on GarageBand.com.

Foxfire is currently planning a second full-length recording with a tentative release date of December 2009.
