Carly Paradis

Carly Paradis is a Canadian-born, UK-based composer and pianist who’s become a go-to name for crafting atmospheric, emotionally charged scores for TV and film. Best known for her work on hit BBC series *Line of Duty*, she’s built a career blending minimalist piano melodies with lush orchestral and electronic textures. Recent projects like *The Rising* (Sky’s supernatural drama) and *Until I Kill You* (a tense thriller series) showcase her knack for enhancing on-screen tension, while standalone works like *Hearts to Symphony* reveal her versatility in weaving intimate, cinematic soundscapes.
