Composer and Songwriter A.J. McCaffrey has been collaborating with directors, artists, choreographers, filmmakers and instrumental groups for over ten years, including Shakespeare & Company in Lenox, MA and the documentary film group Northern Light Productions. His music has covered a broad range of styles, but always captures the mood through dramatic, emotional directness and vivid orchestral and electronic colors.
As a composer for the concert stage, A.J.'s music is inspired by the work of American and European minimalists like Steve Reich, Gyorgy Ligeti, Kevin Volans and Witold Lutoslawski, composers whose sunny, rhythmic energy and drive contrast with subtle, affecting and darker textures and harmonies.
Bands and artists like Radiohead, Sparklehorse, Jeff Buckley, Sufjan Stevens and Bjork have also been influences; as a bassist, guitarist, singer and lyricist, A.J. has written, performed and recorded songs that explore similar themes of lightness and darkness going hand in hand. Like his concert and film music, it is always dramatic, melodic, and expertly colored with both traditional and unexpected sounds.
