Michael A. Muller

Michael A. Muller is a multi-instrumentalist and composer based in Los Angeles, best known for his work with Balmorhea (Deutsche Grammophon) which he co-founded in 2006.

He began his dedicated solo works in 2019 with Lower River, a textural and meditative debut album that toured as a multi-disciplinary exhibit from Berlin to Los Angeles. The collaborative Lower River Reworks followed, featuring Bing & Ruth, Duane Pitre, and Masayoshi Fujita among others. Since, he has created site-specific work at artist residencies and widened his output by placing songs and creating scores for dozens of commercials, short films, documentaries, and remixing material from neoclassical pianists Michael Price and Daigo Hanada and the Belgian black metal group Oathbreaker.

Muller is currently composing and arranging for both new full-length Balmorhea and solo albums, as well as scoring several film and multi-media projects throughout 2022.
