Today, symphonic pop extraordinaire Cody Fry has released his beautifully uplifting single, “What If,” out now via Decca Records US/Universal Music Canada. The moving track appears on the GRAMMY-nominated artist’s forthcoming album, The End, out September 15. Listen to “What If” HERE and watch the whimsical video HERE.

 

On “What If,” Cody invites us to look inside his mind as he works to ameliorate his anxious thoughts. We find Cody in a painfully relatable moment where he is envisioning the worst possible outcome for a situation. Throughout the course of the song, Cody begins to shut down his trepidations and adopt a more optimistic approach, proclaiming “Maybe the fear just means I’m alive. Maybe I’ll fall, but what if I fly?”  Inspired by his personal experiences with anxiety, Cody explains, “The song begins in a place of anxiety, but it uses this strategy I’ve developed from going to therapy. Anxiety is looking at the worst possible outcome of any given situation. If you’re going to do that, you have to also acknowledge that there is a best possible outcome." The accompanying visual is pure magic – the vivid imagery coupled with Cody’s palpable joy by the end of the song result in a truly captivating video.

 

Cody’s mental health journey was a major source of inspiration for his upcoming album, The End. The record blends Cody’s signature cinematic compositions with vulnerable revelations about his struggles with anxiety, along with poignant reflections on change, love, and the human condition. The End is the culmination of all that Cody has learned about himself and his music, highlighted by standout tracks including the recently released “Waltz for Sweatpants.” Following the runaway success of “I Hear A Symphony” and “Eleanor Rigby,” which earned the multi-instrumentalist a #1 on the Billboard Classical Tracks chart and a GRAMMY nomination, respectively, this album gives Cody a chance to celebrate his triumphs so far.

 

Stay tuned for more from Cody…and mark your calendars for September 15th!
