“You know you're in inventive musical hands with Chris Roe's score”
— On The Score [Bad Apples]
Chris Roe is an Ivor Novello-nominated composer whose work combines an acoustic palette with a contemporary edge. His credits span across film and television, including BAFTA award winning After Love, Jed Mercurio's hit thriller series Trigger Point, and most recently Paramount's dark comedy feature Bad Apples, starring Saoirse Ronan.
A classically trained pianist and string player with a love of experimental music, Chris is equally at home working with a full orchestra as with a broken tape machine or vintage synth, building a distinctive musical palette for each project.

“An ambient seascape score by Chris Roe, which at times recalls
the fluid strains of Nicholas Britell’s music for Moonlight,
adds another layer of tension, evoking the disparate shards of
these characters’ experiences...”
— The Guardian [After Love]
“One of the most deliriously fun and unsettling scores this year.”
— On The Score [Bad Apples]
“The score by Chris Roe is unbearably tense…”
— The Boston Globe [Blue Jean]
“Still, stripped, minimal, and yet bursting with emotion…a
masterclass in sonic narration.”
— The Nerd Daily [After Love]
