My name is Ollie Jones and I am a 18 year old film composer, cellist, pianist and musical theatre lover from Cornwall, England, whose style is incidental film and minimalist music.
Ollie Jones is an 18 year old composer, cellist and pianist from the southwest of England, UK. His minimalist, chill style is not dissimilar to that of Ludovico Einaudi and Hans Zimmer has been recognized by radio, film and artists worldwide - all still as a young indie composer.
In 2021 he worked on a feature length film, "Optics" for which he provided the score, and is now available to watch on Prime and Google TV.
I love to work with anyone! In the past I have worked with a couple of poets to provide a score for their work, as well as made low-key piano tracks for various artists. Please contact me with any jobs and I will be more than happy to work with you, or refer you to someone else.

Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?
A: I started creating my own music when I was 14, when I was suffering with arthritis in my hip, which was then followed by a total hip replacement. Still going, I absolutely love it! I am fitting it around studies and other commitments, but this style really attracts me, so perhaps a career in music is a possibility?

Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?
A: Ludovico Einaudi's style and tone of his music inspires me the most, so if you like his music, then you'll like mine!
