Spencer David Hutchings started composing while at the University of Colorado at Boulder, where he earned a Master's degree in Classical Guitar Performance and a PhD in Musicology. During this time he honed his skills in composing and orchestration, and began to write and perform music for concert-hall performances, internationally recognized choreographers, and documentary films.
After returning to his native New York, Spencer fell in love with film composing. His music appeared in Vera Farmiga's directorial debut "Higher Ground," and his first feature-length score was for Oscar-nominated director Bruce Beresford's "Peace, Love, and Misunderstanding," starring Jane Fonda, Catherine Keener, and Jeffrey Dean Morgan.
Since then, Spencer has written and produced music for upwards of 50 film, television, commercial, and live projects, including the Melissa Leo, Tracy Morgan, and Jesse Eisenberg comedy "Why Stop Now," two multi-award winning short films from Peak Road Productions “In The Blind” and “To Oh Seven”, and Peter Hutchings' high school comedy "The Outcasts," starring Victoria Justice and Eden Sher.
Recent film projects include "Then Came You" starring Maisie Williams and Asa Butterfield, for which he composed the score and co-wrote (with Todd Michaelsen) the song “Airborne.” He also scored Katie Walsh's inspiring documentary about pro surfer Brianna Cope ("Surfing to Cope"), which featured music from the electronic duo, Odesza. Most recently, he composed the score for the very popular romantic comedy “The Hating Game,” which is currently available on all rental platforms.
Recent non-film projects have included working closely with John Medeski and Warren Haynes on orchestral production for an untitled upcoming release as well as producing songs for the popular singer-songwriter MALINDA.
