Emile Mosseri is an Oscar and GRAMMY award-nominated composer, singer, and songwriter based in Los Angeles. Known for his song-based approach to emotionally stirring film scores, Mosseri has established himself as a distinctive voice in contemporary film music through his work on Minari (2021), The Last Black Man in San Francisco (2019), and Kajillionaire (2020).
Musical storytelling is central to Mosseri’s work—a talent that translates powerfully from screen to stage. In February 2025, he released his second solo album, tryin to be born, marking a significant evolution in his career as a performing artist. The album, recorded at Altamira Sound with frequent collaborator and producer Bobby Krlic (Midsommar (2019), The Haxan Cloak), blends cinematic orchestration with vulnerable songwriting, revealing a deeply personal side of his artistry.
Mosseri’s live performances, backed by a band featuring Meg Duffy (Hand Habits), Dougie Stu, and Kosta Galanopolous, weave together material from his albums and film scores, creating intimate, genre-defying shows. His collaborative spirit extends to his recording work with artists including Angel Olsen, Sam Gendel, Julianna Barwick, and Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith.
