Muscle Shoals' FAME Studios is where Betty Fox recorded Peace in Pieces, with Spooner Oldham and Clayton Ivey among the players, and the album went to No. 1 on the Roots Music Report blues chart. A Tampa native who sang country gospel as a child, Fox brings her four-piece soul and blues outfit to Fogartyville; the Betty Fox Band has played the Tampa Bay Blues Festival and opened for Mavis Staples, Lucky Peterson and Marcia Ball. As the Suncoast Blues Society's representative she reached the finals of the International Blues Challenge in Memphis, and she later earned a Blues Music Award nomination. Her earlier records are Too Far Gone and Slow Burn.
