Mark McAdam

Mark McAdam is a composer, producer, and sound designer based in Brooklyn since 2006. Before that, he toured and recorded as the frontman of the band Sumack (V2 Records) and then as solo artist until, finally, he settled down to build his own studio and focus on scoring independent films, network series, and a slew of commercials. Mark also took up mixing and sound-design almost by accident, which led him to a stint as music editor on the 2016 best picture winner Spotlight.

In addition to his own critically acclaimed records, Mark has written songs for Willie Nelson, Sharon Van Etten, and too many television shows to list here. He’s been lucky to collaborate musically with members of The Pogues, Arcade Fire, The Breeders, Beirut, The Cardigans, and produced dozens of others. You can check out some of his other credits here.
