With over a decade of experience, award-winning music supervisor Rob Lowry has mastered the art of weaving songs together to tell a story and show you something that visuals simply cannot. From a young age, the prolific supervisor has used music as a vessel to build a narrative. Whether it was making mixtapes for friend’s birthdays in elementary school, directing his own silent films to put music to in high school, or using the perfectly curated thread of songs in the form of a mix CD to tell his mom he was leaving home to pursue his dreams in Los Angeles after graduating college, Lowry understands that music is able to say everything whilst saying nothing at all-mouth shut, heart open, soul out of body. Now, his work on screen carries that same level of intimacy and care.
At 36, Lowry is a powerhouse in music supervision with credits that range from critically acclaimed to commercially celebrated. Most recently he has leant his ear and talents to widely loved projects such as box office smash The Lost City (Paramount), Universal’s groundbreaking Bro’s, Netflix’s instant classic Do Revenge, Sundance winner Cha Cha Real Smooth (Apple+), Netflix’s masterful Wendell & Wild, and cultural sensation Gossip Girl (HBO Max) – amongst a growing plethora of others. The beauty of his scintillating work comes from a passion for diverse storytelling that allows him to partner with a wide range of talent and pull from a rich well of sounds-which can include everything from modern pop and R&B to traditional Arabic music -in order to successfully get a message across or evoke a specific feeling that perhaps hasn’t even been named yet. For Rob, music is the ultimate tool to connect people to each other, the art at hand, and-ultimately-the world.
Lowry is a two time Guild of Music Supervisors’ Awards winner and six time nominee. He was recently featured as one of Variety’s “Music Supervisors to Watch” and his work has been covered in a variety of publications including Pitchfork, Rolling Stone, The Hollywood Reporter, MTV, and Paper Magazine, among others.
