CHRIS BRANCH


Chris Branch is an award winning composer and sound designer who works across a wide range of disciplines. Whether he is working on an AR application for Facebook, a Dreamworks animation, a comedy show, a theatre show or a live immersive VR experience, Chris’s passion for collaboration remains a constant driving force in his work.

Chris grew up on a small Caribbean island called Nevis - as a child he made his own instruments from whatever he could find and would cajole anyone he could (often his long suffering sister!) to join his band. He went on to study Electronic Music under Dr. Nye Parry at the Guildhall School of music and Drama in London and graduated with a First-Class Honours degree in 2001

Chris has gone on to be a prolific and critically-acclaimed composer and sound designer working on commissions from the likes of the BBC, Channel 4, The Royal Opera House, The National Theatre, Disney, Google and Facebook. Chris has won numerous awards including a Fringe First at the Edinburgh festival and has toured the world with his live shows.


Testimonials:

“I have known Chris for nearly twenty years having first commissioned his first production music release. We have worked consistently over that period recording hundreds of new titles. These recordings have ranged from current pop and electro trends through to neo-classical commissions.

These commissions have demanded an expert level of musical and audio skill. The subsequent recordings represent and display the highest level of composition, arrangement, mix and organisation skills. Such a combination of skillsets equates a rare level of proficiency. All this work would have been for the companies BMG, Universal and Warner Chappell.

Chris is an innovative and exciting person to work alongside. He’ll always make sure amazing musicians will contribute wherever possible and this inclusive attitude always makes the overall delivery as slick as possible. He's a self-motivator and has a strong musical identity but is also able to always make sure the clients he works with feel the transparency of the process. Always makes for a pleasant and engaging experience!”

Head of Production Music, UK – Warner Chapel (2020)

“… Chris always brings real enthusiasm to a brief; offering new ideas but ensuring that the editorial ambition is hit.

His love for finding new sounds and ability to think outside the box make for interesting instrumentation and melodies that really punch through. Chris is great to work with and has a joy for the job that really shines through.”

Jon Hancock

Founder, Three Arrows Media

Executive Producer, The Baby Club, CBeebies (2020)

“… Chris has always been a joy to work with and a complete professional.

We gave him a brief as to what the music needed to do and on both occasions he nailed exactly what we wanted first time. He was totally receptive to any tweaks or changes we had and his ideas have always made the music better.

We have had so many awesome comments about the music for our most recent CBeebies series Let’s Go For A Walk and how it creates ‘moments of mindfulness’ within each episode.

I can’t recommend Chris highly enough to any production and look forward to working with him again on our next project.”
