About Us

The Story

Composers Justin Krol and Quinn Scharber have forged a powerful partnership, drawing on their versatile creative expertise to strengthen projects across the film, television, commercial and music worlds. Most recently, the duo scored director Vera Drew’s feature debut, The People’s Joker, which premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) and released theatrically. Recently profiled in the New York Times, the film features a musical palette highlighted by a tribute to the orchestral scoring of the great superhero films paired with unique aesthetic and instrumentation to help capture Drew’s grand vision. 

As their partnership evolved, so did their repertoire. Justin and Quin’s impressive portfolio of media work also includes scoring for multiple seasons of the documentary series Wisconsin Foodie on PBS and composing the ONYX Collective studio mnemonic, which debuted in Questlove’s Academy Award-winning documentary, Summer of Soul.

Justin and Quinn are also especially established in the commercial and sync worlds. Their music has been a part of audiences' daily lives through various sync placements in shows on platforms like Netflix and Hulu. In addition to scoring to picture, they've built a prolific catalog of music and have also contributed songs for publishers distributed internationally through BMG, APM, and various other platforms. They also previously arranged commercials in back-to-back Super Bowls for Busch Light, which featured musical cameos from Kenny G and Sarah McLachlan.

On the stage and in the recording studio, Justin and Quinn have a storied history of lending their talents to uplift other artists. Their collaborative spirit has seen them work with a host of renowned producers including Pat Sansone (Wilco), Bill Skibbe (Jack White, Blonde Redhead), and Alex Newport (Bloc Party/Pissed Jeans). Touring has also been a crucial part of their journey, notably accompanying Justin's brother, Mike Krol, on his tours throughout the US and Europe. 

The duo continues to be inspired by the musical opportunities that the canvas of film and television presents. Scharber attended the prestigious Berklee College of Music in Boston, while Justin bounced back and forth between the studio recording and film programs at University of Milwaukee, WI.  

When not writing music, they can both be found with their respective families, warning their offspring about the perils of choosing a career and life in music.
