Culotta, a singer-songwriter with a background in drama and film-scoring, brings a strong sense of character, emotion and story to every project.

Elliott, a classically trained multi-instrumentalist and performer, brings a rigorous artistry and an instinct for expansive, richly layered arrangements.

Part music studio, part collaborative playground, CHIMES works closely with filmmakers to build distinctive musical worlds that deepen the emotion of the story on screen.

ABOUT NONI CULOTTA - SONGWRITER & COMPOSER

Noni Culotta is a songwriter with a degree in drama and film-scoring from NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts. Culotta has been collaborating with film composers since 2012, creating works that span pop, rock, country, house, funk, musical theatre and more.

Culotta found her love of music early in life at family sing-songs and in her local community theatre. She started writing songs at the age of 8, trained as a classical pianist, taught herself guitar, and moved to New York for a decade where she developed her songwriting as a composer for film and theatre.

Since returning to Austin, Noni continues to write and collaborate with directors and producers to help bring their stories to life through song, and is working on a feature length movie musical of her own.

With CHIMES, Noni is excited to get to bring a lifetime’s worth of passion through songwriting to elevate stories on the big screen, and explore new possibilities at the intersection of music and film.
