About
Dirk Campbell (born Hugo Martin Montgomery Campbell, 30 December 1950), previously known as Mont Campbell, is a British composer, multi-instrumentalist, and company executive. Campbell is best known for his work with progressive rock bands such as Egg and National Health, though he would later "forswear the genre of rock music altogether, and would begin to develop an interest in folk tradition and, increasingly, non-western music."

Cambell began a full-time career as composer in 1989 with film and commercials commissions from Redwing Films and now lectures on music in remote antiquity, and ways of incorporating non-western music into contemporary composition. He is a director of Ovesco, a Sussex-based alternative energy company.
In December 2024 Campbell put his music up for sale on BandCamp.
