Phillip Foxley is a multi-genre songwriter, guitarist and music producer. He writes Blues, Rock, Punk and Piano/Acoustic music for TV and film soundtrack licensing from his home studio in North Wales, UK.

With influences like Buzzcocks, The Clash, Fleetwood Mac, David Gilmour, Mick Ronson and Leslie West, Foxley has now released his own debut album entitled "I'll Try 'Till I Die", an eclectic collection of original blistering blues rock guitar and soft acoustic and piano tracks written over the years. Foxley says "Every track on this album means so much and every note is from my very soul".

This album is like my musical life story. It’s also a ‘big’ album in that there are over twenty tracks on it already and, because I don’t intend to release any more albums, I just keep adding tracks to it as they are released.

Everything's already said about Grunge, right?
The guitars roar raw and unpolished in the tradition of the old heroes. A little bit of drop D, a bit of teenage angst, weltschmerz and a lot of anthemic, energetic rock. This sometimes reminds of the sound somewhere between
Pearl Jam or Alice in Chains, but without being just epigonic post-whatever. Emotional lyrics, dynamic songs full of blood, sweat and tears bring the grunge out of the 90s and carry it on to infinity and much further!

Shortly after the first EP was released, the songs were rotated on numerous radios in Germany, the USA and UK. Now the long-awaited full-length album “Squirrels On A Plane” with fifteen brand new grunge rockers for the old and new fans follows.

Grunge is not dead! Here comes the Ueber-Grunge from Nuremberg

Some reviews:

“Don’t be surprised if you hear more from or about Stonebourne in the coming months. Squirrels On A
Plane could very well launch them onto the global music scene if they play their cards right.” BOSTON
ROCK RADIO

“Squirrels On A Plane is full of romantic intensity, heady choruses, which we never tire of. I therefore
invite you to take part in this Stonebournesque adventure of 15 stages in a landscape with massive riffs,
shaken by good vibrations and where the emotional and bewitching singing works wonders.“  ROCK
METAL MAG (France)

“The quartet breathes the grunge era with every pore and every brain synapse. Authentic dirty sound
that reproduces the grunge zeitgeist well and perfectly forms the nineties leap in time.” ROCK HARD
MAGAZIN

“Stonebourne  can  elevate  your thoughts  and  throw  you  in   a hole  at  the  same  timeand  yes,  they
perfected the art of hypnotism to hook you to this 15-track album, from start to finish.”  CALCUTTA
GRUNGE EXCHANGE

"Kartscher sings wonderfully wistful in the best Kurt Cobain style and once again proves a knack for
songwriting. Musically it's very close to 70's hard rock, a bit like on the early Soundgarden albums, so
with a lot of dirt. A charming somersault back to the 90s!" NÜRNBERGER NACHRICHTEN

"Stonebourne are in no way retro - at best timeless. Front man Sven Kartscher definitely has his own
charisma, not just because of his penchant for soul striptease. An unreservedly worth hearing newcomer,
from whom we will hopefully get to hear more soon.“ MUSIK REVIEWS
