BIO

Johnny Jewel is a composer, producer, and the architect of Italians Do It Better. As the force behind Chromatics, Glass Candy, and Desire, he has defined a generation of synth-driven cinema, with music featured in Nicolas Refn’s Drive and Bronson, Ryan Gosling’s Lost River, and David Lynch’s Twin Peaks: The Return. On stage, Jewel transforms his scores and soundscapes into an immersive live experience—analog synthesizers, projected film, and sweeping atmospheres that blur the line between concert and cinema.

Johnny Jewel – Live 2025

Johnny Jewel is a composer, producer, and the visionary founder of Italians Do It Better. As the driving force behind Chromatics, Glass Candy, and Desire, he helped shape a modern language of synth-driven noir that bridges the underground and the silver screen.

His work has illuminated cinema and television alike—Nicolas Winding Refn’s Drive and Bronson, Ryan Gosling’s Lost River, Fien Troch’s Home (winner of the Georges Delerue Award), and David Lynch’s Twin Peaks: The Return, where Chromatics’ performance of “Shadow” became an instant touchstone.

Beyond the screen, Jewel has scored runways for Chanel, Dior, and Bottega Veneta, blurring the line between music and fashion. Most recently, his score for Holly (2023) expanded his palette of glacial ambience and luminous melody.

On stage, Jewel transforms these worlds into an immersive live experience—analog synthesizers, projected film, and sweeping soundscapes converge into a dream both intimate and grand, where every performance feels like stepping inside a movie.
