John Walsh

As an award winning composer and songwriter, I have created original music for a variety of global advertising campaigns as well as composing the scores for notable film and television productions. Clients to date include Jameson, Guinness, Heineken, Tourism Ireland, Ford, Carlsberg, the Olympic Games, the Special Olympics and currently Expo 2020 Dubai for their global launch campaign featuring football superstar Lionel Messi.

Awards to date include five Kinsale Sharks and three ICAD Bells for original music.

As 'John Gerard Walsh' I have composed the original scores for the feature films "The Drummer and The keeper" starring Dermot Murphy (Bohemian Rhapsody) and "Cherry Tree" starring Naomi Battrick (Jamestown) and recently, I arranged and produced a song for the soundtrack of BAFTA winning director Neasa Hardiman's debut feature film "Sea Fever".
Television drama work includes music contributions to the major Discovery Channel series "Harley and the Davidsons" starring Michiel Huisman (Game of Thrones) and directed by Ciarán Donnelly (Vikings, The Tudors).

I have also composed and produced many opening themes for television including the current 6 Nations Rugby title music for Virgin Media and Prime Time for RTE Television.

I am a dog lover and self confessed chocoholic.
