music for film & television

  • Ari Aster

    I have had the pleasure of working with Brendan Eder on four short films, and I am immensely proud of the work he has done on each of them. He is extremely versatile, his taste is impeccable, and he is a remarkably quick study. I am thrilled to be working with Brendan, and I count myself (and my films) lucky to have met him before he's impossible to book.

    Brendan came onto our short film project after we had worked with two other composers who couldn't get the vibe of the movie. He instantly understood what we were going for and delivered music that blew my mind. It seriously elevated the project and enhanced the story. He did what two other highly regarded composers couldn't! Plus, Brendan is such a joy!

  • Sam Quinn

    Brendan is a musical chameleon. His previous scores were nothing like what I had in mind for my own film but I trusted that he was a good enough musician to give me what I wanted. Brendan adeptly translated my mind’s eye into a thrilling, stylish, and sexy score. It truly brought my film to life.

  • Will Prescott

    Brendan isn't just a talented composer, he also happens to be a gifted storyteller. This was important to us when hiring a composer because we wanted the score to stand out almost as its own character. Brendan's ability to understand what I was going for and then deliver such stellar work is the exact reason I'd only want to work with him on future projects.

    Brendan Eder is a genuinely fresh and original talent who is also refreshingly easy to work with. As the composer on my project, he proved he has a rich and fertile imagination  that allows him to come up with a variety of creative solutions, even when working against a tight deadline. The network was as pleased with Brendan’s music as we were. I highly recommend Brendan to score any television or feature project.

  • Nathaniel Atcheson

    Brendan Eder is an amazing composer.  What he did for my film elevated it beyond my expectations.  I genuinely enjoyed working with him and look forward to doing it again on my next project.

Brendan Eder's music has a distinctive mark of authenticity and sophistication, which directors repeatedly seek him out for. In 2024, Eder wrote the original score for “Leap of Faith,” directed by Nicholas Ma and produced by Morgan Neville. His music was recently featured in “American Seams,” which premiered on the PBS POV and LA Times Short Docs."

In addition to creating original scores for feature films, shorts, and television Brendan also composes for advertisements, and his ensemble releases are regularly licensed for film and television. Brendan lives in Echo Park, Los Angeles.  IMDB
