| A member of the alternative rock band Shudder to Think, Nathan Larson makes his solo debut as film composer on "Boys Don*t Cry."
Originally formed in 1986, Larson joined the band as guitarist in 1994, just in time for the band's first major label contract with Epic Records. After signing with Epic, the band released their fifth album, "Pony Express Record" and three years later "50,000 B.C."
After Larson scored a portion of the MTV special "Abducted," the band hooked up with video director Jess Peretz to score his big screen debut, "First Love, Last Rites." Shudder to Think also scored the soundtrack for "High Art" and participated on the "Velvet Goldmine" soundtrack.
Larson has just signed a solo record deal with Artemus and recently contributed a duet with the Cardigans' Nina Persson for the film "Desert Blue."
