About Sofia Talvik
Sofia Talvik's music has a special tint of her Scandinavian heritage, making her a favorite among music lovers. A North Sea siren blending sparkle and melancholy. She is a veteran performer, with 6 full-length albums, who tours both Europe and USA every year. She's seen more states, and more places in the USA, than the average American, and she seems to love it. This Swedish singer/songwriter has now toured through 47 states in her little 1989 tour RV, otherwise known as Lil'Chief.
She has been compared with giants like Joni Mitchell and Judy Collins, as well as fellow Swedes "First Aid Kit", but has her own raw quality, a down-to-earth sound that makes her brilliant songwriting skills shimmer even more. She doesn't have to hide behind the sounds, her songs and performance speak for themselves.
Sofia Talvik was charting as the 3rd most played artist on Folk Radio USA in December, and her Christmas album When Winter Comes charted as no 5. Her Christmas single charted as no 7.
Her latest album Big Sky Country (named one of the 5 best Americana albums of the year by British newspaper The Telegraph) celebrates her love for the vast plains, big mountains and sandy coastlines in the states that she toured through, as well as the warm and quirky people she met on the road. "One of the most distinctively memorable Americana albums of recent years was made by a tirelessly touring, talented Swedish songwriter Sofia Talvik" wrote New York Music Daily when Sofia Talvik toured along the East Coast last year.
She's played the big festivals like Lollapalooza and SxSW, opened for artists like Maria McKee and David Duchovny (X-files, Californication) but the intimate setting of a smaller stage where she can casually joke and communicate with the audience is really where her strength as a performer shines the most. - From Facebook Page
