NEW YORK (Sophie B. Hawkins Official newsletter) - Chris Isaak has invited singer, songwriter and musician Sophie B. Hawkins to join him on part of his U.S. tour this summer. Beginning July 9 in Philadelphia and going through July 30 in Denver, Sophie will perform hits (the Top 5 "Damn, I Wish I Was Your Lover" from her Grammy-nominated 'Tongues And Tails' and the No 1 R&R AC/Adult Top 40 hit "As I Lay Me Down" from 'Whaler' alongside songs from her latest release, the critically acclaimed Wilderness which includes the Top 30 A/C track "Walking On Thin Ice," described by Rolling Stone (4/7) as "a dreamy charm..." Because Sophie is doing it all on her own this time, the victory of having a successful song is sweeter. "It's harder now to achieve success because I don't have the corporate machine behind me, but I do have the will and the passion which makes climbing the charts even sweeter." Sophie independently recorded, conceived and planned the release of the album, which she co-produced with production wizards Christian and Frank Berman (Amber, Baha Men, Real McCoy). The Sophie B.
