Jordan Frye’s full length album “daydreaming” arrives the groundbreaking full-length 11 track album, "daydreaming". Southern California surfer/skater and established Pop songwriter leaves listeners suspended in air with dopamine-infused hooks, Bowie-sized ballads, and breathtaking lyricism. “i’ve always been a daydreamer. sometimes my dreams are so tangible that’s it’s difficult to separate the memories from the imaginary, the past from possibility. the most vivid daydreams have a way of pushing up through the soil, and blooming into song.”
Born and raised in Ventura, California Frye grew up surfing, skateboarding, and listening to acoustic folk and alt-rock. The son of a drummer from the ’60s, he was immersed in music at a young age and began writing his own original songs when he was 10. Jordan has spent most of his career writing and producing for other artists in pop, country, and alternative rock including The Unlikely Candidates, Layto, Royal and the Serpent, Welshly Arms, Bryce Fox, Mackenzie Bourg, and Zack Willams. At the same time, his solo journey pulls from episodes of his personal life, nostalgic romanticism, infused with a sweet Southern California spirit ala a modern-day Tom Petty.
2025 was a monumental year as his first single "wildflower" released in January entered the Top 40, peaking at #35 on the Hot AC radio charts, securing placements on Spotify's New Music Friday playlist, #1 on SODA, and earning airplay on BBC Radio 1, SiriusXM's The Pulse, and Life with John Mayer. On March 20th, the first day of Spring, Jordan Frye stepped into the historic Boulevard Recording with an all-star band, engineers, and video crew. Boulevard Recording located in Hollywood, California is owned and operated by Grammy Award Winning Mix Engineer Clay Blair, and home to some of the most beloved albums ever recorded. It’s the place Fleetwood Mac’s tracked “Rumors”, Pink Floyd's “The Wall”, “A Deeper Understanding” by the War on Drugs, and countless other timeless bands.
“rhythm of love”, co-written and produced by Derek Fuhrmann (Goo Good Dolls, Phillip Phillips) also landed on Spotify’s New Music Friday and Just Good Music, this time showcasing a different side of Frye’s personality, with early Paul Simon-esque acoustic guitars, a pounding kick drum, and giant Peter Gabriel-sounding horns and bgvs. Jordan's third single “magic” was in rotation on Sirius XM the Pulse for two months, glistening with electric guitars and doubled synthesizers, Frye and his all-star band are clearly ready to kick off Summer early.
The album title track “daydreaming” produced by young hitmaker Cooper Folden landed spot #13 on Spotify’s New Music Friday 2026, the third single from the album to be featured on a Spotify Editorials.
