Morgan Kibby is a classically trained pianist, cellist, and vocalist who began her career performing with orchestra, the San Francisco Opera, jazz ensembles, and musical theater. After graduating from the Lycée Français, she joined French band M83 as a core member—writing, singing, and touring internationally. Two acclaimed album cycles culminated in the platinum single “Midnight City”, a Grammy nomination, and headlining a sold-out Hollywood Bowl alongside tours with Depeche Mode, The Killers, and Kings of Leon.
As a songwriter and producer, Kibby has contributed to multiple Grammy-nominated and chart-topping albums for artists including Panic! At The Disco, Harry Styles, and Lady Gaga. She has released solo work under the monikers White Sea and Sue Clayton, and remixed more than 25 tracks for artists such as Lorde and The Weeknd. Her work on Panic! At The Disco’s #1 single “Hey Look Ma I Made It” earned her a BMI Pop Award.
Her first score for feature film Bang Gang in 2015 premiered to critical acclaim in the Platform competition at TIFF, and Kibby was awarded Best Original Score at Les Arcs European Film Festival. Subsequently, Kibby attended the 2016 Sundance Composer Lab and has gone on to score projects for Amazon, Netflix, Hulu, AMC, Disney, Discovery, the BBC and The CW, as well as narrative features premiering at international festivals including the official competition at Cannes.
Recent highlights include the BAFTA-shortlisted Mothering Sunday (starring Olivia Colman, Colin Firth, and Josh O’Connor), Netflix’s global #1 series The Watcher (BMI Award), Disney’s Queens ( 2 Royal Television Society Awards, Best Music), and the BAFTA-winning series Am I Being Unreasonable? Morgan also had the distinct honor of testifying in Congress on behalf of her peers regarding digital copyright law.
