Amanda Krieg Thomas
Amanda Krieg Thomas has been passionate about the intersection of music and storytelling all her life, from writing fiction and singing in choirs as a child, to producing stage musicals in college, and finally moving across the country to begin a career in music supervision. Since then she has worked tirelessly in the field for over a decade, collaborating with top-level creators on a wide variety of films and television series.
Current projects include new seasons of anthologies American Horror Story (FX), American Horror Stories (FX) and new franchise American Sports Story: Gladiator about tragic football star, Aaron Hernandez (FX) as well as the follow up to Dahmer - Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story (Netflix) centering on the controversial Menendez Brothers. She recently completed work on the new season of Feud: Capote’s Women (FX) and charming Christmas movie, Best. Christmas. Ever! (Netflix) starring Brandy.
Amanda’s diverse body of work ranges from young adult fare, such as raunchy coming of age indie film Plan B (Hulu) and thriller Panic (Amazon) to subversive, dark comedies like The Shrink Next Door (Apple TV+) and Claws (TNT) to animation with Big Mouth (Netflix) and Human Resources (Netflix) to prestige dramas like Dopesick (FX), The Patient (FX), The Americans (FX), and Halston (Netflix), which earned her a Primetime Emmy nomination for Outstanding Music Supervision in 2021. Musicals are also dear to her heart, and music supervising the 2020 film adaptation of The Prom (Netflix) starring Meryl Streep, Nicole Kidman and Ariana DeBose was a career highlight. She has also been nominated for 8 Guild of Music Supervisors Awards for her work on country music drama, Monarch (Fox), Pam & Tommy (Hulu), Pose (FX), Hollywood (Netflix) and The Assassination of Gianni Versace: American Crime Story (FX), winning one for docu-series, The Andy Warhol Diaries (Netflix).
She started her career in the trenches at Lionsgate, Endemol Shine North America, and Format Entertainment, working on projects that spanned from The Biggest Loser (NBC) to Pitch Perfect 2 (Gold Circle Films/Universal). It was at Format where she first made the transition to a music supervisor role; highlights there included performance competition show, Fake Off (truTV) and the 2015 American Girl “Girl Of The Year™ film, Grace Stirs Up Success (American Girl/Mattel) starring Olivia Rodrigo.
In 2015 Amanda dove back into the world of scripted television at Neophonic Music & Media, working alongside PJ Bloom on Feud: Bette and Joan (FX), The Americans (FX) and The People vs. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story (FX) for which he shared with her the Guild of Music Supervisors Award for Best Music Supervision in a Television Limited Series or Movie. Other credits at Neophonic include network favorites Life In Pieces (CBS), Proven Innocent (Fox) and Reverie (NBC).
