I hear a symphony cody fry
And when it came to deciding which songs would be on the record, each track was picked with incredible intentionality. The collection of songs is simply exquisite, delicious even. All of that has been stuff I’ve been wanting to do, but this success and need to bring these new fans into my music further is what got me to pull the trigger on creating Symphony Sessions.” “It’s a combination of new orchestrated arrangements of a few older songs, some newer songs, and then a cover of ‘Eleanor Rigby’ and collaboration with my friend Ben Rector. That’s how the Symphony Sessions were born,” Fry says. So I thought I needed to create a project that allows me a vehicle to create more music like that. “Coming off of the viral success of ‘I Hear A Symphony,’ I wanted to deliver more music in that orchestral genre to my new fans. The record combines the polished high drama of orchestration with the bubbly elements of pop music to create an irresistible sonic adventure. So, on January 21, Fry released his latest album titled Symphony Sessions.
Now, it seemed like he was uncovering yet another dimension of the music realm that could take his career to the next level. Fry has been involved with music for his entire life (his father was an orchestral composer and jingle writer). This sudden reaction to “I Hear A Symphony” was equally stunning and encouraging for the artist. TikTok is just so weird, and I just love it,” he concludes. It feels like people really express themselves in super genuine ways, while I feel other social networks have this mask of shininess, that this is my brand I’m putting forward. You can keep up with Cody on Instagram via TikTok via or on his website, .“It was not my intention to be viral on TikTok, it just sort of happened, and the way it translated into streaming numbers for me has been a huge blessing to my career. He once was asked to perform for Oprah on a Mediterranean cruise ship. Cody has performed all over the globe including with the world-famous Metropole Orkest, and even had a rave-reviewed stint on American Idol.
His genre-bending discography and musicianship gives him the opportunity to perform in a huge range of artistic contexts.
Like father like son, Cody’s love of orchestration permeates much of his work and lends his sound a unique and truly cinematic quality. His father, Gary Fry, is an orchestral composer who writes for symphonic organizations all over the world. Growing up in a musical household, Cody was steeped in the world of music from a young age. So when Cody Fry sits down to write music for himself, it’s the sum of those experiences that make him an artist like no other you’ll come across. The Nashville-based singer/songwriter/composer/producer has written music for everything from national ad campaigns, to video games, apps, fashion events, Vimeo-Staff-Picked short films, A-list corporate scoring work for brands like Netflix and Google, and even a Super Bowl commercial for McDonald’s. His bombastic cover of "Eleanor Rigby" was recently nominated for a GRAMMY in the category of "Best Arrangement, Instruments & Vocals."Ī list of Cody’s career accomplishments might, at first, seem strange and wide-ranging. After the life-changing viral TikTok success of his song “I Hear a Symphony,” Cody Fry has embarked on a new creative journey with Symphony Sessions, a sweeping orchestral collection of new songs, new arrangements of old songs, and live videos featuring his signature widescreen approach to pop music.
