Unmistakably Nordic in flavor, Sofia Talvik somehow still conforms to American interpretations of her own original music, a North Sea siren blending sparkle and melancholy, creating a special niche of folk music.
Sofia Talvik will be playing live at The Tipsy Teapot in Greenville, NC April 14th
You win some and you loose some. Unfortunately the show in Southport, NC at Playhouse 211 got canceled but I’m happy to announce that we just confirmed at gig at The Tipsy Teapot in Greenville, NC on Saturday April 14th.

I’m tracking my footprints, or rather tire tracks, back towards the east coast and will be re-visiting a few of my favorite concert venues and exploring a couple of new ones along the way. So it’s extra nice when Connect Savannah gives me this “welcome back” in their latest edition:

Sofia Talvik’s newest collection of songs, The Owls Are Not What They Seem, sounds like it could have been recorded in the early 1970s, when singer/songwriters were prized for their eccentricity, and the striking colors they brought as individuals to commercially-viable acoustic balladry. (…)
On this album, she is clearly in her element. It is a thing of spectral acoustic beauty, and this Monday night performance is highly recommended by us jaded fools here at Connect.

Here’s the second live video of the songs from my new album TOANWTS (The Owls Are Not What They Seem). During my US tour “Drivin’ & Dreaming” I’m going to record all the songs from the album and release on youtube as a live video album called “TOANWTS Acoustic Video Album”. This song is called “The Garden” and was recorded at the Stavinoha’s beach shack in Surfside, TX, that they let us stay at as a mini vacation to get some rest after our RV broke down in Austin, TX after SXSW. You can see and hear the ocean in the background. I wish I would have had more time to just hang out and relax there. Thanks to John and Edie for letting us stay!
I’m going to perform all the songs from my new album “The Owls Are Not What They Seem” live from different places in the US during my tour and put them up on YouTube. Here’s the first song from the album “Delusional”, recorded in Bossier City, LA.
