Symmetry is an American instrumental musical duo consisting of Johnny Jewel and Nat Walker of Chromatics.

In late 2010 Jewel was asked by director Nicolas Winding Refn and lead actor Ryan Gosling to score the film Drive. He collaborated with Walker, but their material was ultimately not used. However the film soundtrack did include previously released music from Chromatics and Desire, both on Jewel's Italians Do It Better label. Jewel and Walker then formed Symmetry and further reworked and expanded on the original tracks, ending up with nine hours of music, two hours of which were released as an LP entitled "Themes For An Imaginary Film" in 2011. In 2011, they also released a limited run promotional LP entitled The Messenger, limited edition of 1500 copies on clear vinyl. In October 2013, a video for the song "The Hunt" was also released via YouTube.

Symmetry has performed live internationally at private events for a number of fashion lines, including Gucci and Chanel.

Their song "The Hunt" is used as the main theme song to the American television series "Those Who Kill" on A&E.

On February 3, 2015, Symmetry released their remix of the Chromatics track "Yes (Love Theme To Lost River)", the trailer music to Ryan Gosling's directorial debut, Lost River. Symmetry's Remix of "Yes" was used as trailer music for the Lost River film in Spain.
