Graham Reynolds

Graham Reynolds, the Austin-based ‘quintessential modern composer’ (London Independent), unveils his debut solo album, Mountain, in 2025, expanding his distinctive sound beyond acclaimed scores for films like Before Midnight and A Scanner Darkly.

Graham Reynolds is an Austin legend. Born in Frankfurt, Germany, grew up in America’s northeast, and then he relocated to Texas and became part of the furniture as half of the Golden Hornet, man handling punk’s DIY ethic into classical music. He tumbled into movie soundtracks (A Scanner Darkly, etc), theatre pieces, and became renowned for an annual re-imagining of festivities with the live extravaganza Graham Reynolds Ruins The Holidays.

Having become a regular audio foil for Richard Linklater’s movies, highlights of which include the acclaimed score for the closing chapter of the Before triptych Before Midnight.

Graham Reynolds releases his debut solo album for Fire Records ‘Mountain’ on March 21st. A socio-geographic trip along the Sierra in your mind, standout title track ‘Mountain (Part 1)’ is filled with romantic orchestral sweeps conjuring up an image of a vast landscape disrupted by a singular peak, while ‘…Part 2’ takes a more jagged path, traversing an angular ridge before steadying itself into a piece of Hermann-esque Hitchcock.
