Simón Wilson is an award winning Los Angeles based film and television composer. After studying with Theodore Shapiro and working on major studio productions (Severance, Bombshell), he has gone on to score documentaries such as Rhino Man and 25 Cats from Qatar, write additional music for Netflix’s Delhi Crime and Disney’s The Mysterious Benedict Society, and gotten deep into modular synthesis. Most recently he has been collaborating with Craig Wedren (Yellowjackets) in co-scoring the documentary Alok which premiered at Sundance in 2024. He is returning to Sundance this year having written (and sang!) music for the outrageous comedy Gail Daughtry and the Celebrity Sex Pass, directed by David Wain. Simón’s latest music can be heard in National Geographic’s UFO’s: Investigating The Unknown, Paramount’s reality show The Family Stallone and Hans Zimmer’s Bleeding Fingers and Extreme Music catalog.
Simón is a multi-instrumentalist as well as a classically trained singer. His compositions draw on a broad palette of musical influences - from cinematic orchestral music, to psychedelic electronic scores, to guitar-driven funky jams. His gift of precision tied to a relentless work ethic ascend his love for music into an elaborate and eccentric career. The end goal is to always tell a story with compelling, evocative, and original sound.
