Their original music is driven by strong melodies and a cool beat and their cover selections are songs you dig but don’t typically hear. Modern influences include Mumford and Son, Avett Bros, Old Crow Medicine Show, Cake, Wilco, and The Decemberists while traditional influences include Bob Dylan, The Rolling Stones, The Grateful Dead, Bob Marley, and The Band with touches of Violent Femmes, REM, and U2. With approximately 200 songs in their playlist, The Foles craft shows to please most any audience or venue and are capable of performing an all original performance or a  more cover song oriented performance where everyone can sing along. A typical show consists of a nice mix of both. 

The Foles have performed at many venues in and around the Greater Cincinnati Region including Top of the Park Rooftop Bar, The Phelps, Arnold’s Bar & Grill, The Oak Tavern,  Molly Malone’s, deSha’s American Tavern, Japp's, The Silverton Café, The Rookwood Pub Mews, Fountain Square, Sawyer Point, The University of Cincinnati, and Elk Creek Vineyards in Owenton, KY.
