After rising to international stardom as the drummer for the Police, Stewart Copeland parlayed his success into a career as a composer, authoring a prolific series of film and television scores, video game soundtracks, and even delving into opera and ballet. Despite his origins in rock and pop, Copeland’s solo career has been reliably eclectic.
After his acclaimed soundtrack to Francis Ford Coppola‘s Rumble Fish and an African-inspired solo album, The Rhythmatist, he continued to branch out both as a composer and collaborator, playing in projects like the jazzy Animal Logic and the funk-fusion supergroup Oysterhead.
A high-profile reunion tour with the Police in 2007 returned him more firmly into the rock world, as did the 2017 project Gizmodrome. In 2022, Copeland earned a Grammy Award for Divine Tides, a collaboration with new age composer Ricky Kej, then returned to his earlier work with the 2023 album Police Deranged for Orchestra.
Stewart also has two books out and a documentary that details his experience with the Police.

A Breath of Fresh Air
This show is my love letter to music – especially the songs of the 60s, 70s, and 80s that shaped our lives and still soundtrack our memories. Each week, I sit down for heartfelt, fireside-style conversations with the legends who made the music. You’ll hear stories behind the songs, tales from the road, and reflections on where life has taken them since the spotlight faded (or burned brighter than ever). THEIR LIVES. THEIR STORIES. THEIR MUSIC. It’s nostalgia with heart, and a few surprises along the way.
