John Powell is a British film score composer born on 18 September 1963, and currently based in Los Angeles. Powell originally trained as a violinist as a child, before studying at London's Trinity College of Music. He later ventured into jazz and rock music, playing in a soul band The Fabulistics. On leaving college, he composed music for commercials, which led to a job as an assistant to the composer Patrick Doyle on several film productions, including Much Ado About Nothing.

Since he was little, Harry Manfredini has had the dream of writing music for film. In his native Chicago, the musician worked as a jazz saxophonist for 20 years before beginning to work with children's movies. His second break came when meeting with producer Sean Cunningham. The two hit it off and began a professional relationship that would span several films. He may be remembered most for his score of Friday the 13th and some of its accompanying sequels. With Cunningham, he also worked on the scores of House and House II: The Second Story.
