Thomas Benjamin Wild Esq. has been delivering his own brand of singalong, musical humour since 2016, and the video for his sweary anthem ‘I’ve No More F***s To Give’ has been viewed over 19 million times on YouTube alone, sending his debut album ‘Awkward Encounters While Walking My Dog’ to number 3 in the Billboard Comedy Album Chart in 2019.Since then, after receiving a copyright strike on YouTube for playing a Brian Adams cover, he embarked on a mission to write an original song a week for as long as he could keep it up. This ongoing project has so far yielded numerous other viral classics, including ‘It Would Be Lovely To See You Again,’ ‘P*ssing The Right People Off,’ and ‘My Brain Won’t Shut The F**k Up’ which has been viewed over 15 million times across social media features on his latest album; ‘Carry On While The World Burns.’
In 2023, he decided he needed a band of well groomed folk to accompany him on his travels around the country and join in with the mirth and merriment, so the Fancy Chaps were formed.
Thomas takes inspiration from the wit and wisdom of the songwriters of the early-mid 20th century and combines them with punk rock sensibilities to create pithy songs full of catchy tunes and social and political commentary that speak volumes about the times we live in.
Support for the event comes from Gareth P. Morris; an award-winning, musical comedian from Leicester, England, now residing in the scenic landscapes of South Wales. Along with discussing topics such as parenthood and marriage, Gareths act is scattered with original songs that explore quirky themes, before taking unexpected turns.
Whether he's singing about the environmental impact of plastic bags or the rampages of a giant lizard, Gareth’s work is a refreshing and entertaining addition to the world of musical comedy, drawing inspiration from Victoria Wood, Flight of the Conchords, and Stephen Lynch.
