Fox and Branch's first CD was released in the fall of 2001. Musicians include Lil' Rev, Eric Noden, Lisa Horngren and Joe Ruback. SingOut! magazine said, "...smokin' old-time country blues. For their debut CD they've collected some grand old songs from the likes of the Mississippi Sheiks, Robert Johnson, Mississippi John Hurt, and D. L. Menard. Add Fox's fiddle and some guests on piano and bass, and you have one very sweet recording. This is great fun to listen to!" The CD can be ordered online at CD Baby

"Fox and Branch are the best kind of musicians – making everything they play their own, while acknowledging the tradition from which the music comes. A folk duo from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, they perform a lighthearted mix of early jazz, country blues, jug band and dance music usually targeted to adults. Here the focus is on folk-derived children's songs that have been extensively tested at shows in public libraries and day care centers ... the dedicated duo offer a spirited blueprint on how to put together an effective kids-oriented album." – SingOut!
