Phony Season 1 Soundtrack
Phony is a Hulu coming-of-age mystery comedy that follows high-school student Sonny Cooke (Sam Nivola), who wakes up in the hospital after a car accident and becomes convinced that his mother, and only parent and best friend, Ellen (Connie Britton), who is also the principal of his school, has been replaced by a near-identical impostor. While no one else notices any difference and dismisses his claims, Sonny struggles to live with this potentially dangerous stranger, navigates everyday teen life, and desperately sets out to prove he’s not crazy and uncover the truth.
Created by Nick Paley, Phony is a genre-bending coming-of-age mystery comedy series premiering October 20 on Hulu and Hulu on Disney+. Following a traumatic car crash, high schooler Sonny (Sam Nivola) awakes with the unnerving suspicion that his beloved mother Ellen (Connie Britton) is no longer who she claims to be, but a cunning impostor. Below you'll find the trailer song and the music from each episode so far.

1 TrackPhony Season 1 Soundtrack — Overview & Musical Style
Blending sharp suburban satire with dark psychological mystery, the Phony soundtrack brings Hulu’s eerie comedy to life through a carefully curated selection of alternative rock, indie folk, and vintage punk. As high school student Sonny Cooke (Sam Nivola) becomes convinced that his mother and school principal Ellen (Connie Britton) is an imposter following a car accident, the songs played throughout Phony reflect his escalating paranoia. The series’ sonic identity bridges comforting mother-son nostalgia with unsettling dissonance, making the music from Phony Season 1 an essential narrative device that mirrors the unraveling trust at the heart of the story.
Rather than sticking to predictable indie-pop, the soundtrack pivots wildly between nostalgic comfort and jarring post-punk to match Sonny's erratic state of mind. One minute, a moving office dance with his mother is set to the warm folk harmonies of Indigo Girls' 'Galileo', and the next, a chaotic pursuit on an electric scooter plays out to the frenetic rhythm of Wire's 'I Am the Fly'. The musical selections throughout the season constantly keep the audience off balance, contrasting the gritty punch of The Clash's 'Lose This Skin' with the delicate, vintage melancholy of Molly Drake's 'I Remember' and the bittersweet warmth of Nick Delffs' 'Love in the Meantime'.
