Composer Phill Boucher has lent his cinematic sensibilities to numerous video games, films and television series throughout his decade-long career. He has collaborated with several major game creators including Epic Games, Robot Entertainment, Firaxis Games and Daybreak Games; in addition to composing for blockbuster franchises like Disney’s Pirates of the Caribbean and Maleficent.

Phill is best known for his work scoring Epic Games’ Fortnite and Firaxis’ Civilization VI. His most recent work includes composing 60 minutes of original score for Sunblink’s new castle-defense multiplayer game, HEROish, now available on Apple Arcade. The music draws from medieval, Celtic, and metal influences, featuring an array of unique instruments from the Uilleann pipes (Irish bagpipes), Celtic woodwinds, tenor recorder, shred metal electric guitar, medieval and renaissance string instruments, and a 64 piece orchestra.

He has also written scores for Robot Entertainment’s Orcs Must Die! 3 and ReadySet Heroes; Firaxis’ XCOM: Chimera Squad; and Daybreak Games’ Planetside: Arena.

Previously, Phill worked at Hans Zimmer’s Remote Control Productions where he was mentored by composer Geoff Zanelli. During that time, he worked on a range of projects including Rango, Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales, The Odd Life of Timothy Green, and The Lone Ranger.

Phill’s other credits include writing additional music for Disney’s DuckTales and Invisible Sister; the TBS sitcom Wrecked; No Stranger Than Love starring GLOW’s Alison Brie; and ABC’s The Astronaut Wives Club.

Originally hailing from Massachusetts, Phill’s love of music began with playing trumpet in grade school, followed by playing guitar in a metal band in high school. He is an alumnus of Berklee College of Music and currently works out of his studio in Los Angeles.
