Cox is most notable for having played drums with Brian Cadd, and with the bands Cycle, The Bootleg Family Band and Avalanche. He also filled in as drummer with the Little River Band while Derek Pellicci recovered from burns following a barbecue accident.[2][3] He later became a light entertainment presenter on the Seven Network. In the 2000s, he hosted the travel program Coxy's Big Break.[4]
