Maya and the Three Soundtrack
I am proud to present my score to Jorge Gutierrez's animated fantasy Maya and the Three premiering on Netflix on October 22, 2021. Themes by Gustavo Santaolalla and myself.
The score features Ashley Jarmack on flutes, Maxwell Karmazyn on Violin, Michael "Nomad" Ripoll on guitars and soprano Suzanne Waters. The orchestra and choir were conducted by myself at Trackdown Studios, Sydney Australia and mixed by Steve Kaplan.

Tim Davies leads a very busy musical life. Born and educated in Australia, now based in Los Angeles, the Grammy- and Annie-nominated musician splits his time between orchestrating for features, television, and video games; composing his own scores; and conducting and arranging for orchestras all around the globe.

He is currently lead orchestrator for Christophe Beck, Mark Mothersbaugh, and Fil Eisler. When not on the scoring stage, Davies can be found on the podium conducting orchestras in concert halls and other live venues specializing in film scores live to picture.
Davies has been asked to score several high profile projects. He has special relationships with Mexican directors Jorge Gutierrez and Guillermo del Toro. He is currently scoring Gutierrez’s upcoming show Maya and the Three, and previously collaborated with two-time Oscar winner Gustavo Santaolalla to score The Book of Life.

In 2019 del Toro asked him to produce and conduct a concert of scores from his movies with the Jalisco Philharmonic in his home town of Guadalajara, Mexico. His next project is del Toro’s Cabinet of Curiosities.
Davies is an active pop and jazz arranger as well. Highlights include arranging and playing drums for the twentieth anniversary concert of NAS’ Illmatic and being lead arranger for Kendrick Lamar’s performance of To Pimp a Butterfly, both featuring the National Symphony at the Kennedy Center in Washington, DC. Other collaborations with the NSO have included shows with Ledisi, Common, Maxwell, and Kenny ‘Babyface’ Edmonds. He enjoys a close relationship with the Metropole Orchestra in the Netherlands and has recently written for concerts featuring Donny McCaslin, Cory Henry, and Ibeyi. He has contributed arrangements for several recent BBC Proms concerts, most recently the BBC Symphony and Moses Sumney. He has been on the arranging team for the last two Academy Awards Ceremonies and has written string arrangements for Amy Winehouse, Miguel, Cee Lo Green, and Akon.
