Nicholas Paul is a Film Composer and BMus Graduate from the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire. He has always had a love for film, television and game soundtracks, being inspired by the likes of Hans Zimmer, Thomas Newman and Martin O'Donnell. Whilst studying Music Technology, Nicholas strived to work alongside the other composers and showcase the best of both worlds. Nicholas has written music for various short films, such as 'Passing' (2023), 'Ah!' (2023) and 'Old Leaf' (2023), including the recently released film 'Holding On', directed by Kai Mcnamee. Nicholas co-wrote the film's score with fellow composer and singer-songwriter Jamie-Lou, which recently won Best Score at the Bournmouth Short Sounds Film Festival.
Nicholas was surrounded by a musical family. His father, Richard Paul, taught singing and drums and his mother, Jane Paul, is a renowned pianist for various ballet schools around the UK. His older siblings, Elisabeth Paul and Edward Paul, both regularly perform as a choir singer and bass player respectively. Originally a pianist, Nicholas fell in love with composing during his GCSE studies, starting out writing notated works on his iPad.
