Origin

[edit]

Bryce Savage (born Brandon Christopher Horth[2][3]) and Cameron Wales first met in high school when they were 15 years old.[4] At that time, they were involved in a punk rock band.[5][6] Thereafter, both exited the band and started making their own music.[4] However, this was not yet the creation of Neffex.[5] After high school, Wales moved to Los Angeles, but kept in touch with Savage during college.[4] When Savage was in the last year of college, he talked to Wales and they noticed both were making music in their free time.[4] After college, they got together again, in Orange County, and created the name "Neffex" and the fox symbol.[5][4] On his YouTube channel Savage exclaimed that the fox symbol was not the original intention; instead, he wanted to make something that was easy to replicate (similar to the infamous "cool S" style), and thus it consists of three triangles.

Timeline

[edit]

In 2017, the duo set up a challenge to release 100 songs in 100 weeks.[7][8] All songs released for this challenge are royalty-free and resulted in a combined 2+ billion independent streams across platforms.[6]

On October 16, 2019, they released their first EP titled Q203, named after the apartment where they recorded their first songs.[7][9][8] The album has six songs: When I Was Young, Without You, It's My Life, Sunday, Primal, and Want Me.[10][11][12] Shortly after, they embarked on their first tour, doing 13 cities across Europe throughout October/November of 2019.

On September 25, 2020, they released their debut album titled New Beginnings featuring Rozes, Jez Dior, and Masn.[13]

On July 6, 2021, they mutually decided to part ways as Wales wanted to focus on a solo project, while Savage would continue with Neffex.[14]

On July 7, 2021, Savage set up a challenge to release 100 songs in 100 weeks again and same as before, all songs released for this challenge are royalty-free.[6]

On January 13, 2023, Neffex's single "Fight Back" was certified RIAA Gold.[15]

On March 24, 2023, Bryce Savage released the tour dates for his "Born a Rockstar" tour spanning 25 cities across Europe and North America. The tour took place between September and December of 2023, with every single location being sold out by the end.[16]

On June 1, 2023, Neffex's single "Rumors" was certified RIAA Gold.[15]

Savage concluded his latest version of "100 songs in 100 weeks" of copyright-free singles on June 8, 2023; however, he has still released songs consistently since.[17][18]
