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.
My ‘Florida’ playlist today is packed with great Swedish singstresses! (Me included of course đÂ

SOFIA TALVIK
Florida (Makaki music)
Betyg: Fyra kajor (av fem)
POP. Sofia Talviks fjÀrde skiva Florida har ett klart fylligare sound Àr föregÄngarna. Trummor utgör ryggraden och trombon samsas med cello i berÀttelser frÄn den amerikanska södern. En lÄnad strof frÄn de gamla brittiska poprÀvarna Lightning Seeds tyder pÄ att det Àr just pop som varit riktmÀrket den hÀr gÄngen. Men det Àr fortfarande finstÀmt och avskalat med popmÄtt mÀtt, vilket gör att Sofia Talvik har precis lagom balans mellan engagerande driv och sÀllsynt vackerhet.
