What do Hallmark Movies sound like without the music? 🎶 In this episode, Eric sits down with Tommy Fields, the composer behind fan favorites like A Biltmore Christmas, Holiday Spectacular, and Savoring Paris. From his rock band days to composing for the Hallmark Channel, Tommy shares how he creates the magical soundtracks that bring cozy mysteries and heartfelt romances to life.

Tommy’s journey is full of surprises—from almost fronting Velvet Revolver with Slash and Duff, to scoring Hallmark’s most iconic Christmas and destination films. He gives us a rare peek into the creative process, what it’s like working under Hallmark’s famously tight deadlines, and how music shapes every emotional beat of a movie.

In this interview, you’ll hear:

  • How A Biltmore Christmas became a career highlight for Tommy.
  • The secrets behind scoring destination and time-travel Hallmark films.
  • Why music is the “invisible character” in every cozy mystery and romance.
  • Fun behind-the-scenes stories—including working with Dick Van Dyke.

If you love the Hallmark Channel, Hallmark Mysteries, Hallmark Movies, and cozy mystery storytelling, this interview is a must-listen.
