The Red Fox Chasers

The Red Fox Chasers were formed at the 1927 Union Grove Fiddler's Convention in Western North Carolina.

Miles learned to play banjo at age give, using a homemade instrument crafted from a meal sifter and a groundhog hide.

These included several hits that were to remain influential for years: "Stolen Love", "Goodbye Little Bonnie", "Little Darling Pal of Mine", "Honeysuckle Time", "Sweet Fern" and "Pretty Polly".

The Gennett Company routinely leased many of its sides to specialty labels, like those run by Sears Roebuck and Montgomery Ward.

Some of The Red Fox Chasers’ biggest sellers came out under other names, such as the Virginia Possum Tamers and the Black Mountain Gang.
