Longwood Debut
Two-time Grammy Award nominee Cody Fry presents an acoustic evening of heartfelt storytelling and masterful musicianship, and—without the sweeping symphonies of his studio recordings—his voice and lyrical depth take center stage. Performing fan favorites to classics with his own twist, this engaging experience is warm, charming, and uplifting.
Genre-bending singer, songwriter, composer, producer, arranger, and multi-instrumentalist Fry is perhaps best known for his time on American Idol and his viral hit I Hear a Symphony. Based in Nashville, Fry has written music for national ad campaigns to video games, apps to fashion events. He achieved national recognition in 2015 when appearing on season 14 of American Idol and emerged as a phenomenon with his 2021 viral hit I Hear A Symphony, earning more than 200 million streams and reaching number one on the Billboard Classical Tracks chart.
Along the way, Fry has garnered hundreds of thousands of social media creations and streams, released eight albums, and received widespread acclaim, resulting in an RIAA Certified Gold record and countless sold-out shows—not to mention two Best Arrangement, Instruments, and Vocals Grammy nominations, one for his cover of The Beatles’ Eleanor Rigby and another for The Sound of Silence.
