Carole Pegg is a British folk-singer and musician, playing accordion and fiddle. She performed and recorded as Bob & Carole Pegg and was a founder member of the folk-rock band Mr. Fox. After splitting from her husband Bob Pegg, she continued to perform and record as Carolanne Pegg.
In the late 1960s, Carole Pegg was one half on the well-known English folk duo Bob & Carole Pegg, with her then husband Bob Pegg. In 1969 they moved south and played London folk clubs, where they met Ashley Hutchings, who had recently left Fairport Convention and was attempting to form a new group involving members of the Irish band Sweeney's Men including Terry Woods. They took part in rehearsals but the embryonic band soon broke up and Hutchings went on to form Steeleye Span with Woods and his wife Gay.
The Peggs were approached by record producer Bill Leader. He secured them a contract with Transatlantic Records. For their first album they recruited Alun Eden (drums), Barry Lyons (bass), Andrew Massey (cello) and John Myatt (woodwinds) and adopted the name Mr. Fox, the title of one of their songs and a nod towards one of the recurring figures of folk lore.
Her marriage split up in 1971, around the same time that Mr. Fox ceased to exist, after which she billed herself as Carolanne Pegg. She continued to record for a time for Transatlantic records. An eponymous solo album was released in 1973. She briefly joined the band Magus before moving on to become a respected ethnomusicologist.
