Sofia Talvik

“We all know the Swedes can write a mean pop songs – but what about folk songs? Well, one artist is nonchalantly transferring the charm and fun found in most pop songs into sweet, ­acoustic twang. Sofia Talvik, brings bubbly blonde ­ambition to this raw and often quiet genre with a captivating breath of fresh air.” Ourstage.com about Sofia Talvik’s album ‘Florida’




Sofia Talvik is the next rising star from the Sweden. She’s emerged like a Lady of the ­forest bringing a new ­interesting side to folk music. Where other artists surrender ­to the mainstream, Sofia makes her own paths through the ­musical underbrush of today. Her soft and airy music has been recognized by music lovers and critics all over the world letting her tour the US several times and ­making her the first ever Swedish female singer to play at the Lollapalooza festival in 2008.



“It’s not often that an album takes your breath away, and I hate to sound hyperbolic, but “Florida” actually has several “Oh my god!” moments of sheer beauty.” So writes CDbaby about Sofia’s new album, but who am I to tell you what to think, put the CD in your player and ­decide for yourself if this isn’t the most intriguing artist you’ve heard so far.
