Matt
Novack
Composer
Matt Novack is a classically trained composer and percussionist whose intuitively smart scores have created indelible moments in (mostly) comedy projects across series and film. Matt’s music supports performances by many of today’s greatest comedic actors, including Amy Poelher, Paul Rudd, Rob Cordrry, Megan Mullally, Henry Winlkler and Will Arnett. His most recent work can be heard on the hit Netflix series, Murderville, starring Will Arnett, as well as the series Harley Quinn on HBOMAX.
A regular fixture in the surreal world of Adult Swim’s live-action comedies, Novack was the composer for NTSF:SD:SUV, Filthy Preppy Teens, and, most notably, the three-time Emmy award-winning Childrens Hospital, starring Rob Corddry, Megan Mullally, and Henry Winkler. Matt is also a longtime collaborator with the composer Craig Wedren, having provided music for Universal’s Role Models & amp; Wanderlust, Showtime’s The United States of Tara, and Netflix’s Wet Hot American Summer: First Day of Camp. Novack scored his first feature They Came Together, starring Paul Rudd and Amy Poehler for Lionsgate.
Matt lives in Los Angeles with his wife. When not composing, he enjoys sci-fi novels, video games, and playing second base on the Abominable Pictures softball team.
