Roger Eno

The brother of legendary music producer Brian Eno, Roger Eno launched his career as an ambient musician, multi-instrumentalist, and film music composer in the 1980s. Born in 1959 in Woodbridge, England, he played euphonium as a child and made his debut on Brian Eno's Apollo: Atmospheres and Soundtracks in 1983. A Top 20 hit in Scotland and the UK, Apollo highlighted his talents as a songwriter and piano player, both of which were further showcased on Roger Eno's solo debut, Voices, in 1985. He expanded his sound with 1988's Between Tides, an album whose compositions made room for string arrangements, and continued exploring adventurous sounds throughout the following three decades. A fan of collaboration, he worked with Laraaji on 1989's Islands, tapped Kate St John to join him on 1992's The Familiar, and teamed up with Peter Hammill for 1999's The Appointed Hour. He also appeared on David Gilmour's 2015 album Rattle That Lock and released a pair of albums with the ambient supergroup Channel Light Vessel. Moody and cinematic, Roger Eno's music has served as the soundtrack to many commercials and film projects, including Nine and a Half Weeks, The Jacket, and the NASA documentary For All Mankind. He has continued working with Brian Eno throughout his career, as well, most recently on the albums Mixing Colours and Luminous, both of which appeared in 2020.
