Barry French - Public

Barry French, or "Big Blue" as his friends call him, has been writing and playing music for over two decades now. He began his musical journey as a drummer, playing every Sunday at his local church. Soon after that, he learned the guitar and a whole new world opened up to him: the world of songwriting.

After many years of playing in bands Barry made the decision in 2007 to focus solely on song writing and song production. Within a few months he had landed 4 co-writes with the artist Eowyn for her third album, produced by Grammy-nominated producer Travis Wyrick. The first single, "Silent Screams," which rose to #17 on the National R&R Christian Rock Charts and the second single, "Life," were two of his four co-writes.

After making the decision to focus on the Film and TV market, Barry landed several deals with some prominent music libraries and has had placements in a popular daytime TV talk show as well as on MTV and TLC.

Barry produces the majority of his work in his home studio. He is capable of recording drums, guitars, bass, keys and vocals. He has pro level equipment such as DW drums, Zildjian cymbals, Schecter and Fender guitars, Shure and AKG microphones, as well as dozens of virtual instruments on his PC-based Pro Tools LE 8.0 system.
