Brazen Souls is Mike Flood's directorial debut. To date, he has been, primarily, a composer and producer for visual media. Throughout his career, he has been writing music in a variety of styles, drawing on the many influences that have left their mark on him over the years. He worked as a keyboard player, pianist and songwriter in his own bands Cursory Glances, Sound Advice and After The Flood, and performed in others’ projects, ranging in style from Rock through New Country to Brit Pop.

He's been composing and producing for music-to-picture projects, on and off, since 1997. Highlights have included working on three short films, The Warehouse, My Baby and Nigel The Plonker, which were all selected by the BBC for the British Short Film Festival, premiering at Leicester Square, London. And the Oscar Goes To… was shown at the Cannes Festival’s Short Film Corner and Say I Can With iKan won the Honourable Mention Award for the iKan competition.

There are other non-filmy bits and pieces he's been up to as well, like composing the music for My Name Is Sally Jones?, which enjoyed a four-week run on the London Fringe.

He is the Organist and music director at a 12th Century Church! It was this connection that lead him to write a brand new suite of music, song and poetry in celebration of the church building's 900th Anniversary. Brazen Souls is the showpiece track at the centre of the project.
