Indie/Alt Quartet -  from Corby, Northamptonshire, U.K.
New E.P coming this year!

Life's not always a party!

Matt MacNeill & Chris Myatt are a songwriting and production duo also known as This Party.
The name comes from a place of both facetiousness and sincerity.
Matt and Chris are inspired by the less fun topics in life. Everything is personal, nothing is sacred and every song can embrace, enlighten or even revel in the confusing challenges life throws our way.

It’s those wildcard moments in life, when you step outside the usual, that lead to soulful transformation.
Fox in Oil is a refined mixture of chic rock music and sophisticated pop melodies.

We are a band based in Suffolk. Formed in 2014, we are production passionate and have clubbed together and have evolved a very unique and upbeat take on modern, ripped up, feelgood pop with a pinch of soul.
Diverse sound arrangements and dynamic vocal harmonies (coined internally as 'The Choir') help shape and define the quirky, catchy, orchestral, electric, sexy sound.


Many many years ago… when the music business was just a wooden milk crate serving full fat musical protein to the undernourished children of the East India Company’s shrinking empire… when shares in ‘the revolution’ were first floated on Lake capitalism… when musicians played for love, hoping for the odd bowl of lentils, and were content to slept on the amps in the back of an ancient transit van… 

Banjaxeld remember those days, and you can hear it in their music.  Original songs that instantly seem kinda familiar, kinda intelligent, kinda mature… the odd select cover that sounds as if the band wrote them!  Not only do they make a great sound, they make your fingers tap and your feet dance, they make your ears tingle and they make your mouth smile!  They’ve been known to induce a damn good night out, and soothe the odd Sunday afternoon.  They’re refreshingly festival friendly too! 

Currently based in East Anglia since 2012, they are now blazing trails to London and the South, and soon to the Midlands and the North.  They’ve been attracting interest from much further afield in USA and Europe via radio plays and internet fans, hopefully soon to be followed up by tours.

Banjaxeld have released just the one album ‘Feels Good to Feel Good’, so far (available to order from the website: banjaxeld.co.uk), thirteen original tracks, beautifully recorded showcasing the band’s writing and musicianship.  They’re hoping to get the next one recorded soon… watch this space… better still go along and catch then live… and have yourself a real Banjaxeld good time!


Kevin Daniel’s music career started when he was just five years old and singing Disney songs into a turkey baster turned microphone. A year later he was enrolled in music lessons, starting on piano and eventually picking up the sax, and by middle school was playing in state symphonic bands, touring with classical horn trios, and singing his heart out any chance he could get.

Ultimately Kevin found his place in the jazz and blues scene in highschool and college, while also exploring his talents as a guitar player. By the time he graduated from George Washington University, Daniel had played in two quartets, four high school orchestras, two jazz and blue bands, one bluegrass band, one punk ska group, and even sang tenor in an acapella group. But it was his move to New York City in 2013, and a sudden and unexpected tragedy, that put Kevin on the path towards his eventual solo career.

That winter, during a dinner party in Bushwick, Brooklyn, Kevin received a phone call from his sister that would change everything. His mother and stepfather, adventure-seekers and amateur pilots, had been flying back from their mountain house in western North Carolina when their plane had crashed, killing both of them. Daniel’s life was turned upside down, his family torn apart and the world forever changed. During his return to North Carolina to help with family business, and while reliving his parent’s lives through photos, essays, and family stories, Kevin wrote over a dozen songs, all fueled by the grief of losing his parents as well as the celebration of the large lives they were known for. From those songs six were chosen to record, including one written specifically for Kevin’s parent’s memorial service.

The result of those recordings was FLY, Kevin Daniel’s inaugural EP. The six-song project was recorded in 2014 in Brooklyn and embodies the depth of Daniel’s emotions during a time of supreme distress. Southern sounds of banjo and country-loving three-part harmonies were backed by rock riffs and pop lyrics, which spoke true to life and the celebration of living. “I always knew I wanted to record my own music, and a life spent being in other people’s bands had prepared me to lead my own, both in the studio and on the stage. It was losing my parents that gave me the kick in the ass to finally do it”, says Daniel. The EP is available on all digital outlets as well as on 12-inch opaque blue vinyl.

Kevin Daniel recently finished his second EP, Myself Through You, which was recorded at Degraw Sound in Brooklyn, NY, and produced, engineered, and mixed by Ben Rice. Kevin gathered together a host of talented, professional musicians from all backgrounds for the project, which resulted in a richly recorded blend of genres and instruments. “When I started thinking about this EP, I knew I wanted to get some of the best musicians I know in the studio. With Ben’s help we created a space where people could come in, lay down their own version of the parts, and create something unique to them as well as the record,” says Kevin.

Featuring instrumentation as diverse as pedal steel guitar, flugelhorn, and bluegrass banjo, the songs on Myself Through You deliver sublime lamentations of the country-tinged Americana Daniel has created over the last few years. The EP’s title track Myself Through You’ is Daniel’s attempt to take a subjective look at his own life. “I often find myself trying to take a step back and see life from someone else’s eyes,” says Kevin. “This song came into being at a time where I was really struggling to understand someone else’s point of view. I think we all struggle with that daily.”

Following the release of Myself Through You in early 2018 Kevin Daniel will look to tour throughout the US, taking a full band, and explosive live performance to his soon to be new fans.
