​Geraint is an award-winning composer, writer, conductor, musical director and pianist from Cardiff, working in London's West End and in leading venues across the UK. He studied at the University of Cambridge, and has received training at the Young Vic, the National Theatre, and piano tuition at the Birmingham Conservatoire. He is also an accomplished music transcriber, and accompanist for classical, choral, and musical theatre repertoire.

Geraint is the Musical Supervisor of 
Branwen: Dadeni, co-produced by Wales Millennium Centre and ​Frân Wen. He was recently the Associate Musical Director on the UK tours of Chicago and My Fair Lady, direct from Broadway and the London Coliseum with the ENO. He is currently a cover conductor on several productions, including the West End's Titanique and The Muppet Christmas Carol in Concert which tours distinguished venues across the UK every Christmas.

Geraint recently won the 'Voice, Vision & Potential' Award at the Stiles & Drewe Best New Song Prize, which recognises an outstanding song from a new musical. His song, 'Bio', was from Queerway, a song cycle derived from interviews with queer people living in Rhondda Cynon Taf. The show was commissioned by Leeway Productions for a debut run at the Wales Millennium Centre in February 2023.
