Ryan Lott is a composer, producer, and performer. Founder of experimental trio Son Lux, Lott's latest venture with the band was scoring the A24 Best Picture film Everything Everywhere All at Once (March 2022), featuring new collaborations with Mitski, David Byrne, Randy Newman, and Moses Sumney, among others. His feature film scores also include The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby (2014), Paper Towns (2015), and Mean Dreams (2017), and arrangements for several others, most notably Looper (2012), for which Lott was also pianist and instrument designer.
An avid collaborator, Lott has worked with choreographers Stephen Petronio, Gina Gibney, and Jodie Gates, along with Ballet de Lorraine, National Dance Company of Wales, and BalletX. He is frequently commissioned by new music ensembles, including eighth blackbird (Lott contributed to their GRAMMY-winning 2015 release Filament), GRAMMY winners Third Coast Percussion, and yMusic, who enlisted Lott to compose their entire 2017 release First. Other recent commissions include an arrangement of "Peace Like A River" for Paul Simon, and a new orchestral work, "The Swift & the Storm," for the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra. He has several releases under his own name, including the learning structures cycle and the original Tell My Why game soundtrack, heralded as "the new gold standard for trans characters in games."
