Cody Fry
A lyrical and dynamic performer, Nashville-based Cody Fry is a gifted singer/songwriter, producer, and arranger whose music touches upon soulful pop, jazz, electronics, and orchestral balladry. Fry achieved national recognition in 2015 after appearing on season 14 of American Idol and found mainstream success in 2021 when "I Hear a Symphony," a track from his 2017 LP, Flying, became a viral hit. After inking a deal with Decca, he released his major-label debut, the orchestral pop-leaning The End, in 2023.
A native of Northfield, Illinois, Fry grew up in a creative family with a father who wrote commercial jingles for a living. By his teens, he was writing and recording his own songs, and ultimately went on to study music at Nashville's Belmont University. Graduating in 2012, he released his debut album, Audio:Cinema, and spent several years as a backing musician for other artists. A second album, Keswick, followed in 2014, after which he made it into the early audition rounds on the 14th season of American Idol. Although he received positive feedback from the judges, he failed to make the Top 20 finalists. Nonetheless, the exposure helped build his fan base, and in 2017 he returned with his third solo album, Flying, featuring the single "Nobody But You." The album found Fry drawing upon his love of film scoring and coloring his songs with full orchestration.
2019 saw the release of the holiday effort Christmas Music: The Complete Collection, which he followed in 2021 with the lush Pictures of Mountains, a set of orchestra-led contemporary pop songs inspired by a trip to France. Later that year, Fry watched his 2017 recording of "I Hear a Symphony" go viral, earning over 200 million streams and reaching number one on the Billboard Classical Tracks chart. Fry received a "Best Arrangement, Instruments, and Vocals" Grammy nomination for his cover of the Beatles' "Eleanor Rigby," which appeared on his 2022 LP Symphony Sessions. 2023's aptly named Symphonic compiled highlights from Fry's orchestral repertoire. Later that year, he issued the affable orchestral pop number "Waltz for Sweatpants," the lead single from his debut for Decca, The End.
