Mervyn Warren, 5-time Grammy Award winner and 10-time Grammy Award nominee, is a highly accomplished film composer, record producer, lyricist, songwriter, arranger, pianist and vocalist.

Equally adept at any style, his work spans many genres - pop, R&B, hip-hop, classical, orchestral, jazz, vocal, country, and gospel. His client roster (from Barbra Streisand to Chicago to DMX) and his film scores (from comedy to drama to action) speak for themselves.

Warren was an original member of Take 6, the a-cappella sextet that took the world by storm in 1988. With them he recorded two albums - one platinum, and the other, gold. On those albums, Warren produced, co-wrote, and arranged most of the award-winning songs. Together they won four Grammy Awards, six Dove Awards, two Stellar Awards, and a Soul Train Award.

On his own, Warren earned an additional Grammy Award for the all-star 'Handel's Messiah: A Soulful Celebration,' as well as five additional Grammy nominations, an additional Dove Award (of two nominations), and two Gospel Music Workshop of America Awards, including one for Contemporary Producer of the Year.

Warren co-produced with Babyface a Billboard No. 1 R&B hit - 'Last Night' by Az Yet; produced a Billboard Top Ten hit - 'I Believe In You & Me' (movie version) by Whitney Houston, from the Grammy-nominated, multi-platinum soundtrack to The Preacher's Wife; and penned a Billboard No. 2 Dance hit - 'The Power of One' for Donna Summer.

Warren has written many arrangements for his mentors Quincy Jones and David Foster, ranging from Quincy's 'Q: Soul Bossa Nostra' (on which Warren produced a track and co-produced a second), 'Back on the Block' and 'Q's Jook Joint' to feature-film scores to various records with Michael Buble, Celine Dion, Brandy, Leann Rimes, and many others.

As of 2011, Warren divides his time between producing records and writing both underscore and songs for feature films, including the #1 hit, "The Wedding Planner" and the critically acclaimed "A Raisin In The Sun" (2008).
