SOPHIE has taken her melodic-electronic sound across North America and Europe both headlining and opening for Sting, Shaggy, Alison Moyet as well as appearing on the prestigious Isle of Wight Festival in the UK.

SOPHIE describes her sound as “Retro Electro.”
SOPHIE recently released her album entitled “Retro Electro” on which she wrote, arranged, performed and produced all of the tracks. Her video for the song “Mommy Issues,” directed by Maximilian Stafford, featured SOPHIE’s original styling and science-fiction inspired aesthetic. During her recent London set, renowned producer and lead singer of The Buggles, Trevor Horn, joined SOPHIE onstage to duet on her version of the song “Video Killed the Radio Star” prompting the UK’s Daily Mirror to write: “[The version] blended the upcoming star's Retro Electro sound with the song’s timeless new-wave spirit and it was clear it marked a standout moment in her impressive set.”
When not writing and recording her own songs, SOPHIE is a sought-after live, session musician and songwriter. SOPHIE has also appeared on ABCʼs Good Morning America TV program accompanying Shaggy on the keyboards.
