Biography
John is an award-winning composer, songwriter and performer from Yorkshire.
He won Best Composer at the Stage Debut Awards 2022 for his score for the Olivier-nominated hit Cruise. He has performed his scores on London’s West End and composed for the Royal Shakespeare Company.
His most recent theatre work includes his live score for the acclaimed true-crime hit KENREX, which transfers to New York in April 2026 after a sell-out run in London.
John also composes for film and television, with recent work including the BAFTA-nominated film Terence.
He has toured Europe extensively with his genre-hopping band The Little Unsaid, receiving radio support from Iggy Pop, performing at Glastonbury Festival and receiving the Steve Reid InNOVAtion Award for boundary-pushing music creators.
