Biography

Over the last five years, Honorary Emmy-Award winning composer Joshua Myers has earned an impressive summary of credits in feature film and television, and as producer for some of the industry's finest recording artists.

In 2002, Josh's career kicked off with the critically acclaimed animated series Phantom Investigators (WB). Since then, he has contributed music to a wide variety of television productions including Friends (NBC), America's Next Top Model (UPN), Pimp My Ride (MTV), The Benefactor (ABC), Nova (PBS), Top Design (BRAVO), Starting Over (NBC), Northshore (FOX), Wisecrack (LOGO), Speeders (COURT TV), Bandits Vs Smokies (CMT), 1,000 Places To See Before You Die (TRAVEL), American Inventor (ABC), and National Lampoon's TV movie, Thanksgiving Family Reunion (TBS). Myers has also composed music for a number of commercials, for clients such as Fox Sports, Progressive, Tyson, Hot Wheels, and Sprint.

Myers' feature film credits include Martin Short's Jimmy Glick in La La Wood (MGM), Because Of Winn-Dixie (20th Century Fox) starring Jeff Daniels, and Saved! (20th Century Fox) starring Mandy Moore . In 2005 the Sundance Film Festival witnessed the premiere of The Difference , a documentary commissioned by Kodak, for which Myers composed the score. His most recent original score for a feature film was for The Hamiltons (Lions Gate), a psychological thriller directed by the Butcher Brothers (Lurking in Suburbia).

In addition to his work as a film and television composer, Myers has produced records and arranged strings for numerous recording artists. He did string arranging for Mandy Moore's 2004 release, Coverage, which peaked at #14 on the Billboard 200 (her highest ranking album to date). Myers also collaborated with singer-songwriter Rosie Thomas on her 2005 release If Songs Could Be Held (Sub Pop), as well as producing and mixing her follow up album, These Friends Of Mine (2006), featuring (and co-produced by) Sufjan Stevens.

When time permits, Myers also works as a touring musician, playing keyboards for music legend and friend Jeremy Enigk (Sunny Day Real Estate, The Fire Theft). In 2006 Myers produced Enigk's latest solo effort, World Waits (Sony BMG).

Myers has also seen great success in various business endeavors. In 2004 he co-founded Cinecue, a music licensing company with over 1,500 tracks that have been placed with major networks, film studios, and production companies worldwide. In 2007 Myers formed Burn The Stereo, a collective of musicians specializing in unique and original music for advertising. Burn The Stereo is comprised of accomplished composers and musicians hailing from the rock/pop world, who have worked with recording giants such as Smashing Pumpkins, Goo Goo Dolls, Morrissey, Sunny Day Real Estate, Beck, Garbage, Avril Lavigne, and Weezer.
