Composer. Producer.
ARTIST.
Henry Bloomfield’s singular sound and sensitive approach to music-making has been strongly shaped by a diverse set of musical projects around the world. Recently, he scored a feature documentary called Mediha, executive produced by Emma Thompson and directed by Hasan Oswald (DOC NYC 40 Under 40), which has won Seven Grand Jury Prizes. Mediha, which also received the honor of Opening Night Feature at London’s 2024 United Nations Human Rights Watch Film Festival and at the 2024 Pordenone Docs Fest, was written up in The Guardian and will continue its run at a number of prestigious festivals throughout 2024, including Big Sky, CPH: DOX, DC/DOX, and Movies That Matter in The Hague. Its theatrical run will begin at NYC’s Film Forum on October 11, 2024.
In addition to scoring for film, Bloomfield collaborated with Baz Luhrmann on a Moulin Rouge! The Musical promotional track, had a feature written in Billboard about his Mueller Report concept album, and created a continuously sequenced visual album in Cape Town, They Say It’s Wonderful, that combines a musical reimagination of Golden Age Broadway with an original, electro-symphonic score.
While living outside the states, Bloomfield also became the first western artist to have his or her music and music videos distributed by CJ ENM, one of South Korea’s largest K-Pop and entertainment companies, and has performed in bands opening up on tour for Kendrick Lamar, Machine Gun Kelly, Chance the Rapper, G-Eazy, and Third Eye Blind. In the commercial space, Henry has created music for brands such as McDonald’s/Krispy Kreme, Birchbox, and was hired by Sarah Callahan Zusi to compose for a pro-choice Virginia ad.
Currently living in New York City, Henry graduated from Oberlin College with a B.A. in English, studied Jazz Theory at Oberlin Conservatory, and was a Contemporary Writing and Production major at Berklee College of Music. At the moment, he is finishing an Argentinian feature documentary, The Stolen, about the “disappeared” children from the Dirty War era, as well as a feature documentary about the sugar industry in Florida, directed by Tarek Albaba (DOC NYC 40 Under 40).
None of his projects would have been possible without the love, support, and encouragement of his family. Thank you.
