A North Carolina musician whose cinematic arrangements have found homes in films, television, and video games.
For the full Hemsey experience, put on "The Way" and "I Can Get It Back" back-to-back. That's where the orchestral ambition and personal drive come through clearest.
Hemsey's music has that film-ready quality from the start - "Vengeance" in 2012 showed what he could do with orchestral arrangement. Songs like "I Can Get It Back" and "Teachings Of a Ronin" carry that same cinematic weight, which explains why his work keeps turning up in visual media. He's built a catalog that feels like it was meant to be heard with images.
He started playing piano early in North Carolina, then released albums like Stand Strong in 2014 and The Way in 2017. The music kept coming through questions and collaborations, with Unbreakable arriving in 2021. He's worked with musicians like Chris Bleth on guitar and Sarah Hemsey on vocals for recordings and live shows.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
