About Us

After a decade of learning from the best editors and producers in the business, in just the past few years the Patron Saints of Music have made a powerful impact on the landscape of unscripted content across platforms. With a dedicated team of exclusive writers making custom tracks every day of the year and an as-yet nearly undiscovered library, we live to hear or read words like these from post-production: “Hero status – no more music notes!”

And we keep on hearing them.

 

First known for creating and continually updating the sound of all the Below Deck franchises on Bravo (from the very first season), we now provide the majority or plurality of music for over a dozen hit shows on cable and streaming platforms. We love the shows, but mostly we love the people in our world, the show-running producers and all the inspiring editors we get to work with from afar. They work like maniacs, so we do, too. They’re tweakers, we’re tweakers – we get it. We know what you’re up against, so we will deliver until your client is happy, giving you options along the way. And then, we over-deliver, so you can get everyone to that sweet, sweet locked cut. It’s not rocket science, but at the pace content is made today, it has to be rock&roll level passion for all of us.

 

We’re the best there is at what we do right now, and we’d love to add you to our list of client partners.

ABOUT JUDE:

After emerging from the club scene in Los Angeles in the mid 90’s with only a nylon guitar and his remarkable voice, releasing an album of fan-favorite acoustic tracks, and becoming the subject of a major label bidding war, Jude enjoyed some radio success with two high-charting singles, was included on the multi-platinum, #1 soundtrack album “City of Angels: Music from the Motion Picture” in 1998, and saw dozens of song syncs in Film and TV across his two albums with Maverick Records.

By 2002, Jude had left the major labels to independently record and self-distribute “Sarah” a song-cycle album tracing a relationship from beginning to end. In 2003 it topped the charts at CDBaby, reintroduced Jude’s work to college radio, and attracted the attention of the French press. Thereafter, Jude had a second recording career in France, putting out two albums through Naïve Records, both of which were critically heralded and received the prestigious “Four F’s” from Telerama magazine.

Jude toured and performed extensively in the US and Europe, both as a solo artist and opening for a litany of acts including Ben Folds Five, Alanis Morissette, Dido, Tori Amos, Chris Isaak, Train, the John Butler Trio, Tete, and more.

Vocal issues kept Jude off the road for most of 2008-2010, by which time he had launched The Patron Saints of Music. Having already scored one scripted series for ABC, one feature film, and several specialty songs for shows such as “Lost,” he began to find a niche in the world of unscripted TV, where the demand for clear music was high, but the quality of recordings was inconsistent. Marrying his artist obsession and creative drive with the production powers and musical inspiration of a small team of talented collaborators, Jude found his new instrument.

Since then, with the Patron Saints of Music, Jude has overseen music production and acted as a de facto music supervisor for more than 50 seasons of unscripted reality television, including all five Below Deck franchises, recent seasons of various Real Housewives on Bravo, and shows on VH1, SyFy, GameShowNetwork (GSN), and E!. As a music library, The Patron Saints contribute substantial additional music to more shows every year, most notably to VanderPump Rules and Summer House.

Jude also contributes original songs to the University of Pennsylvania’s Mask & Wig Club annual musical theater production. Currently, he resides happily in southern Orange County, California, with his lovely wife and two young boys, working on music for television every day.

And we keep on hearing them.
