Sofie is a singer/songwriter from Ghana who grew up in Oxfordshire in the UK for the most part but was always back and forth from Ghana throughout her life. She is now based in Boston and just finished her second year of university at the Berklee College of Music.
Career highlights so far have been playing the main stage at the Chalewote Festival in Accra the summer of 2017; performing at The African Diaspora Homecoming Conference Gala night celebrating Ghana’s 60th independence; having her first headlining Gig in Boston at The Red Room; Café 939 and performing at the Women of Colour celebration with a hip hop ensemble in Boston, sharing the stage rapping with the American hip-hop recording artist Yo-Yo.
Sofie plays the acoustic and electric guitar and a little piano. She released her debut single ‘Touch My Soul’ in September 2016, which followed the release of her self-titled EP ‘Sofie’ in November 2016. Last Summer she released two new singles ‘Crimson Sun’ and ‘Lost In Your Eyes.’
Sofie is back with her sophomore project, an EP consisting of live R&B and Neo-soul instrumentation which was released earlier today (Friday 24th May) on all available streaming platforms. Sophie just a few weeks ago gave us “Rise” which is the first single off the project.
Speaking to Sofie about the project, she declared; “Light Waves will take you on a journey on which you will feel a plethora of emotions. From the upbeat lively songs like ‘Broken World’ and ‘You’ to the more laid back, chilled out songs like ‘Maybe’ and ‘Rise.’ Get ready to be immersed in the waves.”
