I’m the featured artist in Amelia Magazine, choosing a few of my favorite songs right now! If you want to check out some other great music that I listen to, check out my blog for links to my Spotify playlists!
Florida – Playlist #6
Todays Spotify playlist is a collection of cool live performances, except my song that is song number 6 on my new album “Florida”.
The last two songs are two different live versions of the same song. Dire Straits wrote the original song but I really like the The Killers version from the Abbey Road studios better.
Enjoy your Music Monday!
More Than I should Have – Sofia Talvik
Free Fallin’ – John Mayer
Bohemian Rhapsody – Queen
Romeo and Juliet – The Killers
Romeo and Juliet – Dire Straits
Jolene – The White Stripes

Album release party
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.
Thanks all for coming an making it such a great night, now don’t forget to buy the new album too. You know you can buy a download on music.sofiatalvik.com and decide your own price, or if you prefer a CD we have signed ones in the shop.
There’s also an acoustic version of the entire album that will be available for purchase in a week or so.
AOL covers SXSW
AOL and Spinner.com covers SXSW this year and did an interview with me.
SXSW might be all about the beer, BBQ and bands but things are much more gentle in the world of Sofia Talvik. Crafting delicate moments of peace on her acoustic guitar Sofia is independent in every sense of the word, releasing all her material through the label she owns with her husband (also her manager). Having released two albums so far and worked with former Suede man turned producer Bernard Butler, Sofia will release her third album ‘Florida’ in May. Spinner caught up with her ahead of her trip to Austin for SXSW.
I’m doing a bunch of gigs at SXSW don’t miss out, I’ll play
a lot of the new songs from my upcoming album ‘Florida
