IMDbProStarmeterSee rank
Ben Pearson is a composer and performer known for his compelling, imaginative work featured in a broad range of acclaimed film and TV productions including ITV's 'The Thief, His Wife, and the Canoe', Steve McQueen's powerful three-part documentary 'Uprising' and the Bafta-winning score to the Hugh Laurie-starring BBC drama, 'Roadkill'.

In addition to his recent work alongside renowned composer Harry Escott, where he contributed arrangements and additional music to a number of productions, ('The English Game', 'The Wedding Guest', 'Deep State', among others), Ben created the music and sound of Jack McHenry's fright-horror festival favourite 'Here Comes Hell'.

Ben has been praised for his distinctive style - often described as both nostalgic and progressive - and his thoughtful, dedicated and collaborative approach. Alongside film and TV, Ben has continued to explore his own compositional work, including his much regarded EP 'Poets in the Sky', a collaboration with the recorder quartet Palisander.

Ben performed sold-out shows at the historic Prince Charles Cinema in London with live performances of a score he composed to the silent classic 'Nosferatu' on upright piano and vintage keyboard.
