Picture Competition – Winner announced!

We had a little competition on the night of the release party where all you fans could take a picture of the gig, post it on Facebook and compete for a Sofia Talvik Florida tote. We had so many great contributions that it was really hard to choose a winner.

But by capturing the happiness and and ambiance of the gig and by proving that you do not need a professional camera to take a great picture Therese Göterheim made us look twice at this lovely picture.

Thanks to all that participated in the competition. You can see all the pictures on facebook.com/sofiatalvik

Album release party

Sofia Talvik gig at Södra Teatern Stockholm live new album Florida

This Monday we had a wonderful night at the fantastic venue “Södra Teatern” celebrating the release of my new album “Florida”. The place was packed with people and we had a fun gig playing many of the new songs. During the gig we had a little competition where people could win a Sofia Talvik tote if they took a picture and tagged it as me on Facebook. We got so many great pics. Here’s a few of them and we’ll appoint a winner at the end of this week.

Lots of parties!

I know it’s a kinda weird headline, but this week there has been a lot of parties. Monday night me and the band celebrated the release of “Florida” at the beautiful “Södra Teatern” in Stockholm. We had a great night, the place was packed and we played 8 of the songs from the new album. No one asked me if I could play any ABBA so that was a perk!

Yesterday I attended my friend Dusty Monroe‘s release party for his debut album. Dusty himself looked a bit like Robert Smith on stage with wild makeup and tousled hair. During the gig ballet dancers, robots and a pregnant opera singer in a white sorcerers dress appeared on stage. Half my band who also play with Dusty were all made up in greek helmets and makeup. I was bummed they didn’t wear the same outfit to our release.. or not haha. It was a great gig. Dusty is really a live artist, but check out his album if you like electronica mixed with pop and surf.

I’m off to Gothenburg today to play at a radio show tomorrow and see my parents. Mum and dad have just been backpacking in India. They’re rather adventurous for a retired couple. Me and Jonas is actually alone in the first class carriage, and we just got stuck south of Stockholm due to some problems with the tracks. Good thing I’m in first class where there’s free wifi so I can do some blogging.

My new personal Blog

Sometimes I feel the urge to write down my thoughts. Whether it’s about my music, buying new shoes, cooking or if I’m being annoyed at something. This blog will contain all that and more. This is where you really get to know me, and don’t just get updates about gigs and music. This is where I communicate with you and with myself in my own twisted little way.

Welcome to Sofia’s Thoughts!

We had a great time in Texas and played 6 gigs at SXSW this year. I just want to say thanks to all of you who showed up and supported me. I hope to be able to come back and play in Austin again sometime.
