New York, NY (Top40 Charts) A prolific and imaginative songwriter, Sophia draws inspiration from the 70's rock scene, as well as contemporary pop and R&B genres.

Her dynamic live performances and memorable vocals have led to performances at legendary venues around New England, notably Boston's historic Wilbur Theatre, the Middle East Nightclub (Cambridge, Ma), and the iconic Hard Rock Cafe. Her honest and relatable lyrics landed her a nomination for "New Act of the Year" by the New England Music Awards where she made it to the finals of in the Last Band Standing competition. She also received "Best Original Song" at the Young Performer's Club Showcase and was a PBS Celebration of Music finalist.
When speaking on the track, Sophia explained: "I wrote this song during a time in my life when I was feeling stuck. I was fresh out of a breakup and quite overwhelmed with college. I found myself constantly thinking of the future, my goals, and what I wish I could be pursuing. I just wish I had taken a step back to appreciate the current moment. It's so easy to get tunnel vision and obsess over the future, and in doing so, I was missing opportunities to grow and to be grateful for what I had right in front of me. A picture really will last you longer if you let the present moment slip by without taking anything in."
'Negatives' will be available on all streaming platforms April 17th.
