Cody Robert Simpson was born on January 11, 1997, in Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia. His career began in 2009 by uploading song covers to YouTube, quickly gaining recognition and leading to a record deal with Atlantic Records. After relocating to Los Angeles, his debut single “iYiYi” featuring Flo Rida was released in 2010. He further solidified his music career with an EP, “4 U” (2010), and subsequent albums “Paradise” (2012) and “Surfers Paradise” (2013), the latter of which debuted in the top 10 on the Billboard 200. Simpson toured extensively, including co-headlining the “Waiting 4U Tour” with Greyson Chance in 2011 and supporting Justin Bieber on his “Believe Tour” in 2013. In 2014, he competed on “Dancing with the Stars,” finishing in ninth place.
After parting ways with Atlantic Records due to creative differences, Simpson established his independent label, Coast House, and released the album “Free” in 2015. In 2017, he formed the band Cody Simpson and the Tide, releasing the EP “Wave One” which blended pop, rock, and surf-rock with themes of environmentalism. Following the band’s split in 2019, Simpson returned to solo work, releasing the song “Golden Thing.” That same year, he won the first season of “The Masked Singer Australia.” In a significant career shift, Simpson focused on competitive swimming, qualifying for the Australian Swim Team in 2022 and competing in the Commonwealth Games, earning a gold medal in the 4×100 meter freestyle relay and a silver in the 4×100 meter medley relay. He retired from competitive swimming in 2024 after failing to qualify for the Paris Olympics.
Beyond music and swimming, Simpson has engaged in acting roles, appearing in TV shows like “Instant Mom” and “Cougar Town,” and starring in the Broadway musical “Anastasia” as Dmitry from 2018 to 2019. He has also embraced entrepreneurship and advocacy, launching a sustainable clothing line, Prince Neptune: The Label, in 2022, and an energy nutrition drink line, Dr.Hydrate, in 2024. He has served as a brand ambassador for various companies and became a United Nations Development Programme advocate for oceans in 2017. His diversified career highlights a continuous evolution across music, sports, and business endeavors.
