Sofia Talvik – Americana / Folk with Swedish Roots
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.
I’ve visited some folk radio shows here in Cleveland, OH for my upcoming shows. I was invited to play some songs and chat about the tour at Just Plain Folk with Twistin’ Tom and will put up a link when it’s airing, and Saturday July 7th Jimmie Wilson of WRUW 91.1’s morning show Roll Away the Dew treated me to some studio time as well, to which you can listen here:

The New York episode of Drivin’ & Dreaming TV is finally up. Come with me to the museum of National History, check out the 100th gig on the tour and hear what NYC cab drivers have to say about capitalism. This is the best way for you to follow me on tour and see all the behind the scene things that’s going on every day.

Philadelphia newspaper Daily Local News published a nice interview today for my show at the PhilaMOCA in Philadelphia, PA tonight (Wednedsday) and my upcoming show on June 28 at Chaplin’s in Spring City. You can read it all here!
I’ve done a couple of radio shows the last weeks so I figured I should put up a post for those of you who missed them when they aired.
On June 14th I visited Bostons #1 music show Dropping Knowledge WMBR 88.1 FM and played a couple of songs. If you missed it you can listen here! (don’t be alarmed when it wants you to download, it’s just a little file so that you can stream it in iTunes)
[quote] In short, Sofia Talvik has the talent, but she also has something far rarer in an artist—boundless determination, and a genuine love of performance over fame. [/quote]
That’s what Left End WERS 88,9 FM wrote after having me over for some songs and a chat on June 24th. You can read the whole (awesome!) article here!
