From Saturday Night Live! to the Soho and Sedona International Film Festivals, Will’s music has accompanied hundreds of film, television, and commercial productions throughout the world. His compositions have appeared alongside programming and media for Peacock (Dr. Death), Netflix (Dark Desires), BET (The Bobby Brown Story), NBC (The Today Show), and countless others. He has produced music for artists on the Warner Chappell label, composed music for a dozen different publishers (Universal, APM, BMG), and scored films distributed by FilmRise and Saban (a partner of Lionsgate). With millions of streams and thousands of monthly listeners across streaming platforms, his extensive experience as a producer, writer, and arranger has made him a go-to composer for directors, producers, and creative agencies seeking his bombastic orchestral, experimental, and rock-infused approach to underscore.

Following a music composition degree, he moved to Los Angeles and spent several months working under composing veteran Jeff Rona, whose work appears on blockbusters such as Gladiator, Black Hawk Down, and The Prince of Egypt. Will later moved back to his native Minneapolis home where he planted roots. Before taking on a writing schedule that forced him to leave teaching, he taught music composition and production privately for a decade, and his students have gone on to study at NYU’s prestigious scoring program, compose for music publishers, and receive concert commissions. He has spoken on film and music at Gobbler Music in Hollywood, MSP International Film Festival, McNally Smith College of Music, Bethel University, the Institute of Production and Recording, University of Mary, St. John’s University, and numerous other institutions and societies.
