EGO PLUM
Ego Plum is a musician, award-winning composer, and producer whose distinctive sound and unique sensibility has made him the musical king of quirky animation. He has lent his creative talents to numerous films & series including the upcoming Warner Bros. Animation feature Aztec Batman: Clash of Empires, the Netflix animated series The Cuphead Show! for which Ego was nominated for an Emmy and won an Annie Award,  Amy Winfrey’s hit series Making Fiends, Nickelodeon’s series Harvey Beaks – for which he assembled the studio’s first 60-piece orchestra - and Nickelodeon’s cultural touchstone series SpongeBob Squarepants.

Ego first got the attention of Nickelodeon in 2008 with his unabashedly original score for Making Fiends, and has since scored other animated series including Welcome to the Wayne and Disney’s Star Vs. The Forces Of Evil. His musical subversions have also been recently heard in the HBOMax animated Hanna-Barbara series Jellystone, for which he writes both score and songs, and two projects set in the Spongebob Squarepants universe, Kamp Koral and The Patrick Star Show.

In 2012, Ego was presented with an Ovation Honor by the Los Angeles Stage Alliance for his Russian-inspired mechanical musical score and original songs for the Gogol Project, and in the same year he completed his first orchestral score for the black & white 35mm indie feature, The Ghastly Love of Johnny X, starring Academy Award-winner Paul Williams.
