As a three time Emmy Award winner and a double Grammy nominee, you would think that Goodwin had fulfilled his dreams and achieved all of his goals. But, that isn’t the case – not by a long shot. The Composer/Arranger has just finished his album XXL due in September 2003.

It all started at the tender age of five, Gordon Goodwin began composing from the music he heard in his head. Not just snippets and melody lines, but whole compositions from beginning to end. He wrote his first big band chart, “Hang Loose,” at the age of 13. This almost preternatural talent made him stand out in the Jazz world and brought Goodwin to the attention of music supervisors and producers.

Working with the television and film industry, Goodwin’s writing has generated him three Emmy awards and a pair of Grammy nominations. His cinematic scoring and orchestration craft can be heard on such films as “Bad Boys II,” “The Majestic,” “Con Air,” “Gone in 60 Seconds,” “Enemy of the State,” “Remember the Titans,” “Star Trek Nemesis,” “Armageddon,” and the classic cult film “Attack of the Killer Tomatoes.”
