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.
We’re playing in San Diego tonight (Wednesday 10th) at AMSD!
“San Diego: dialed in” also picked our gig as pick of the week! Read the whole thing here!

We’ve played at the Hartley Historic Mansion in Everett, WA and the Nordic Heritage Museum in Seattle. These kinds of gigs are always quite different as there’s such a mixed crowd. You have the people who know your music there and the people who come because they have a Nordic heritage and want to listen to a Swedish singer. Fortunately no one asked me to play ABBA as one guy that came up to me in the middle of my set on Hawaii. We sold out on all our albums so that was very nice and the audience was so great, really attentive and respectful. It’s such a nice change from bar gigs where there’s always people who talk and don’t care about the music.
Karen Pauley from the radio show Nordic Roots and Branches did an excellent job with the gigs. She was the one who first invited me here last year so I’m happy we could include it in our tour this time! Check ou her radio show here!
A big thank you to all that came to the shows! We had such a great time! Stay tuned for som video clips.

The guys made friends with the guy that sold beer!
After two lovely gigs in Hawaii it’s time for us to leave the sunny islands for Seattle. We’re playing at two venues so if you can’t make it on Friday you’ll have a new chance to chatch my gig on Saturday. Check out www.sofiatalvik.com/gigs for tickets and information.
