Bobby Tahouri is an American composer, musician, and record producer.

Life and work

Born and raised in Los Angeles, California, Bobby Tahouri comes from a musical family, and began playing piano at the age of seven. He studied piano and composition at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music and also at the California Institute of the Arts, where he received his bachelor's degree in Music Composition. Upon graduation, Tahouri continued his studies with notable film composer Ira Newborn, who was an important mentor for Tahouri in honing his musical craft in film.

In 2008, another composer encouraged Tahouri in the next step of his career. After hearing his music, Academy Award Winning composer Hans Zimmer invited Tahouri to be a part of Remote Control Productions, and also recommended Tahouri to composer Ramin Djawadi. Tahouri went on to provide additional music and arrangements for many of Djawadi’s projects, including Paramount Pictures’ Iron Man,[1] Warner Bros. Clash of the Titans, and HBO’s Game of Thrones.[1] Tahouri has also provided additional music on many other projects, including the Emmy-Award-winning Steven Spielberg produced miniseries Into the West, DreamWorks/Paramount Pictures’ Disturbia, 20th Century Fox’s Hitman, and Universal Pictures’ Despicable Me 2,[1] working alongside composers Geoff Zanelli and Heitor Pereira.

Tahouri scored the comedy Zero Charisma (distributed by Nerdist Industries and Tribeca Film), winner of the Audience Award at 2013’s SXSW film festival. He composed the main theme to the documentary series The Haunting Of, and collaborated with producer Rodney Jerkins on the Nickelodeon teen musical Rags, providing the orchestral score for the musical.

In the video game world, Tahouri is best known for composing the score to Rise of the Tomb Raider (Crystal Dynamics).
