From the U.K. to Grand Haven, film composer Sheridan Tongue makes mark on BBC, PBS John Sinkevics Splitting his time between a home studio in Grand Haven and a “replica” work site in London, 53-year-old Sheridan Tongue may be one of the West Michigan music scene’s best-kept secrets. The award-winning musician and recording engineer has earned a reputation and industry plaudits for his work as a film and television composer who’s scored soundtracks for a wide swath of documentaries and dramas. The Belfast native’s film work over the years includes Prof. Stephen Hawking’s acclaimed TV series, the BBC’s “Spotlight on the Troubles: A Secret History” that recounts Northern Ireland’s unrest and its “Silent Witness” crime drama, National Geographic’s “Narco Wars” and PBS’ “The Lost Artifact” for which he won a Northwest Regional Emmy Award last weekend (June 5) along with his collaborators on the project.
