From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Pierre-Philippe Côté, also known by the stage names Pilou or Peter Henry Phillips, is a Canadian musician and composer from Quebec.[1] He is most noted for his score to the 2017 film Ravenous (Les Affamés), for which he won the Prix Iris for Best Original Music at the 20th Quebec Cinema Awards,[2] and was a Canadian Screen Award nominee for Best Original Score at the 6th Canadian Screen Awards.[3]

Originally from Asbestos (Val-des-Sources), Quebec,[4] he studied music at the Université du Québec à Montréal, where he was often commissioned to write music for films made by his friends in the film studies program.[1] He subsequently formed the band Mimosa with singer Ines Talbi, who were the winners of the 2007 Francouvertes competition for emerging musical artists from Quebec.[5] He later launched his own recording studio, Le Nid.[1]

He has released albums as a recording artist under the names Peter Henry Phillips in English and Pilou in French,[1] but is credited under his own name on film scores.

He is married to actress Geneviève Boivin-Roussy.[6]
