Background and musical work
Brian Tyler is a graduate of Harvard University and prior to writing his first movie score, he was already composing and playing his own concert pieces in the United States and Russia. He is a multi-instrumentalist who plays piano, classical percussion, guitar, bass, bouzouki, mandolin, keyboards, and drums. Over the years he has played in many orchestras, ensembles, choirs, and in a number of rock bands and with artists such as Elton John, Foo Fighters’ drummer Taylor Hawkins, and Guns N’ Roses guitarist Slash. Brian is also an accomplished symphonic conductor and conducts his own scores.
After hearing Tyler’s music, film composer and 20th Century Fox’s President of Music Robert Kraft, encouraged Tyler to pursue a career in film scoring. Composer John Williams recommended Tyler to producer William Sherak for the 1999 film “Four Dogs Playing Poker”. Tyler has since scored 2 other films produced by Sherak.
Brian Tyler’s grandfather Walter H. Tyler was an Academy Award-winning art director for films such as “The Ten Commandments”, “Shane”, and “Sabrina”.
Tyler’s first professional scoring and songwriting assignment for the 1997 film “Bartender” led to interest from the producers of “Six-String Samurai”. Tyler wrote Six-String Samurai’s score and composed and performed a song (“On My Way to Vegas”) that accompanied the film’s end credits.
Since then, Tyler has written more than 30 scores, including the 2001 award winning film “Frailty” and Disney’s uplifting “The Greatest Game Ever Played”, both directed by Bill Paxton.
