BRAD KEMP

It all started in 7th grade, when Brad got his first Tascam cassette recorder and started making home recordings in his parents basement. After graduating from Columbia College with a degree in Music Composition, he started his own studio to make music full time.

He has worked as Music Director for the musical "Q2," written by Celeste Lecesne of the Trevor Project and Ryan Amador, at the 2018 New York Stage and Film Powerhouse Season and at The Second City. He has personally composed original music for numerous shows including "The Mountain Digby" [XIX Studios Los Angeles 2022], "Abduction" [Pitt Stages 2023, MTAP 2021, New York Musical Festival 2019], “Tribulation” [Chicago Musical Theatre Festival 2016, New York Fringe Festival 2016], “Dundee: a hip-hopera" [Stage 773], and "Tapped" [Theater Wit, Winner Premier Premieres 2015].
