Jeff Toyne
Composer: Palm Royale
Canadian composer Jeff Toyne blends orchestral virtuosity and dramatic sensibility to tell stories with a distinctive musical voice.
His score to Apple TV’s Palm Royale (Kristen Wiig, Laura Dern, Carol Burnett) combined jazz, Latin and orchestral elements to evoke the late 60’s in a cinematic way. Nominated for 2 Primetime Emmy® Awards in 2024 (winning for Outstanding Original Main Title Theme), Palm Royale went on to win 2 Canadian Screen Music Awards, a Music+Sound Award, an SCL Award, and 3 ASCAP Composers’ Choice Awards.
Born and raised in Sault Ste Marie Ontario, Jeff attended the University of Western Ontario, the University of British Columbia and the University of Southern California.
An alumnus of the Henry Mancini Institute and the Sundance Composers Lab, Toyne is one of Playback Magazine’s “Ten to Watch”. He composed “Splendor Sine Occasu”, the March of the BC Brigade, for the Canadian Armed Forces.
