Biography

Kevin Sargent is a British composer for film and television who began his career as a drummer, percussionist and keyboardist with cult dance/rock pioneers Thrashing Doves. Signed to A&M and Elektra Records, he learnt his craft at the elbow of legendary producers Chris Thomas, Jimmy Iovine and jazz luminary Tommy Lipuma, recording three critically acclaimed albums in Los Angeles, London and New York and touring the US and Europe. Their funky and controversial "Jesus on the Payroll" (1988) reached the Billboard Top Twenty dance chart. In 2005 his score to A Waste of Shame; The Mystery of Shakespeare and His Sonnets was nominated for an Ivor Novello Award and was the sole UK nominee for the European Soundtrack Awards. In 2013 he received a BAFTA nomination for his work on series two of The Hour, and nominations for both Best Television Soundtrack and Best Title Music for We'll Take Manhattan in the UK and international Music & Sound Awards.
