Dustin O'Halloran
Dustin O'Halloran (born September 8, 1971) is an American composer and pianist. Aside from releasing music as a recording artist, O'Halloran is a film and TV composer, as well as one half of ambient act A Winged Victory for the Sullen.
O'Halloran was born in Phoenix, Arizona, and spent most of his childhood in Hawaii and Los Angeles. While studying art at Santa Monica College, he met singer Sara Lov, with whom he founded indie rock band Dévics in 1998. When the group signed with Bella Union in 2001, they relocated to Romagna, Italy, where O'Halloran lived for several years.
In 2004, O'Halloran released his first record as a solo artist, Piano Solos. He has since released five more solo records, including Lumiere (2011), which featured contributions by Peter Broderick and Adam Wiltzie (Stars of the Lid), and was mixed by Jóhann Jóhannsson.
In 2019, O'Halloran signed with Deutsche Grammophon and released his first EP on the label, entitled Sundoor. It features a 20-minute piece, "196 Hz," adapted from a 2017 site-specific composition for cross-disciplinary American artist Slater Bradley’s Sundoor at World’s End held at the Church of Mary Magdalene (La Maddalena) in Venice during the 57th Biennale. Slater Bradley's artwork would later become the cover of O'Halloran's 2024 record 1 0 0 1, also released on Deutsche Grammophon.
With A Winged Victory for the Sullen, his collaboration with Adam Wiltzie, O'Halloran has released four studio albums: A Winged Victory for the Sullen (2011), Atomos (2014), The Undivided Five (2019), and Invisible Cities (2021). The second was also the original score for the identically titled dance piece by choreographer Wayne McGregor and his company Wayne McGregor Random Dance.
In 2015, AWVFTS were invited to perform at the Royal Albert Hall in London as part of the BBC Proms. The duo scored their first film together in 2016, entitled In the Shadow of Iris by French director Jalil Lespert.
In addition to their studio outputs, they wrote the soundtrack for the 2016 film Iris.
In 2019, A Winged Victory for the Sullen signed with UK-based indie label Ninja Tune.
