Biography

BAFTA winning and Emmy nominated composer Mark Thomas is one of the most sought-after film & tv drama composers in the UK today. Classically trained, Mark is stylistically innovative and always ready to experiment and embrace something new.

A first-choice for comedy film and tv drama, Mark's credits include all 10 series of Tiger Aspect's 'Benidorm' for ITV, 5 series of 'Episodes' (for which he was nominated for a Primetime Emmy) starring Matt LeBlanc, Tamsin Grieg & Steve Mangan; 36 episodes of Tidy Productions' brilliant comedy series 'Stella' created by and starring Ruth Jones and more than 150 episodes of 'Shaun The Sheep' created by Aardman Animations. It was for feature film 'Twin Town', directed by Kevin Allen and starring Rhys Ifans and Dougray Scot, that Mark won his much deserved BAFTA for Best Original Music.

Comedy drama rarely requires 'comedy music' and it's Mark's considered, consistent and intelligent approach to storytelling that allows him to create music that engages with the audience - whatever the genre; he's experienced and exciting. A safe pair of hands but always striving, with proven success, to deliver something extra.
