Josh Fix is a South African-born American singer-songwriter, composer, multi-instrumentalist and producer.[1] In 2008 Fix released his self-produced debut album "Free At Last"[2], which saw limited distribution but nevertheless garnered praise in the press[3][4][5][6], and, among other accolades, found itself on Time Out New York's "Best Rock Albums of 2008" list.[7] Associate Editor Hank Shteamer called Fix a "post-Radiohead Elton John [who] obliterated slacker chic with a virtuosically glossy piano-pop opus."[7]

In 2009 he wrote the official theme for And Another Thing..., the sixth installment of Douglas Adams's The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy "trilogy".
