John Lennon (Apple TV+)

I have written the music for the new series John Lennon: Murder Without a Trial which came out last week on Apple TV+ directed by Nick Holt and Rob Coldstream, and produced by 72 Films. The brilliant Mark Russell co-composed the score for episodes 2 & 3, and I had indispensable help from Gus Nicholson who also composed additional music on the show. Fantastic playing courtesy of Nick Holland (cello), Flora Curzon (violin), Georgia Russell (viola), and Graeme Flowers (trumpet).

It’s a very evocative doc with fantastic footage of New York (and John of course) in 1980, as well as quite a bit of previously unseen footage. It is narrated by Kiefer Sutherland, so anyone who’s been missing ’24’ the last few years might enjoy it too! Last month, before it came out, the series won  ‘Best True Crime Documentary’ at the Critics Choice Awards in New York. Do check it out if you can!
