He most recently completed a trilogy of albums (Polarity, Cohesion, and Adhesion) reflecting on the many calamitous water crises affecting life on this planet.
His compositions and scores have been lauded as “ Achingly Beautiful and evocative” (The Hollywood Reporter ) and “Piquant, lively and Imaginative” (Variety) and have made multiple music journalist’s year end lists for best original soundtracks. In 2019, A Closer Listen said, “Fritch is easily the best film composer who hasn’t yet landed a major motion picture; it’s only a matter of time.”
As a recording artist he has released more than 30 albums of his unique amalgam of folk, contemporary classical, and experimental music with the label Lost Tribe Sound.
