Brian Eno (born 15 May 1948) is an English musician. He was one of the original members of the band Roxy Music. He makes music called electronic music, which is music made using computers and other electronic devices, like the synthesiser. Brian Eno has worked with other famous musicians and groups like David Bowie and U2.

In October 2026, Eno relaunched Opal Records, a label that he had started in 1988 and placed on hold in 1991. He said that the relaunch would make some difficult-to-find recordings available again.
