DAISY COOLE
Composer
London composer duo, Daisy Coole and Tom Nettleship have been musical collaborators for over a decade. Their title song for TV drama The Wives was nominated for Best Film & TV Titles at the 2025 Music and Sound Awards, and their score for For Her Sins earned a Best Television Score nomination in 2023. Their music has also been featured in The New York Times, at the United Nations General Assembly, and has been performed live at the Royal Albert Hall.
Upcoming work includes Sheryl Glubok’s screwball road comedy Welcome to the Fishbowl, starring Natalie Gold (Succession), Jeremy Swift (Ted Lasso) and Marin Hinkle (The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel). The film, which very recently completed post-production, was shortlisted for Sundance’s Development Lab and won Best Comedy Screenplay at both the Female Eye Festival in Toronto and Women in Film and Media Colorado. For the project, Daisy and Tom wrote a heartfelt jazz orchestral score combining live strings, a wind and brass octet and a rhythm section trio.
Other notable projects in recent years include the TV drama The Wives, the award-winning US feature Ask For Jane (starring Sarah Steele of The Good Wife and Alison Wright of The Americans), Rohingya refugee documentary Shanti Khana narrated by Ashley Judd, British comedy heist The Pay Day (Starz, Amazon) starring Simon Callow, and the 2024 BFI London Film Festival Award-winning short film Two Minutes.
Their collaborations with dancers include Botis Seva: Air, a documentary and dance film starring the Olivier Award winning choreographer in a rare solo outing, and Swing, Sister, Swing, a narrative swing dance show with a score recorded by a 16 piece all-women big band.
Actively involved in the wider composing community, Daisy and Tom are dedicated to fostering the next generation of creative talent through mentorship and industry leadership. Daisy serves in leadership as a Board member for the global organisation Alliance for Women Film Composers. She is a full voting member of BAFTA and was selected as a 2023 Mentee on WFTV’s prestigious Four Nations Mentoring Scheme. Tom serves as a mentor for the Ivors Academy and Screencraft Works mentoring schemes. They have both been instrumental in drafting and shaping the Ivor’s Academy pledge to end ghostwriting within the UK media composer community.
