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.
[quote] Sofia totally shined as an artist while beautifully expressing the Swedish language and poetic floetry to the audience.[/quote]

Music blog SouthSide of the Town in Chicago, IL has published this nice review of my concert at the Swedish American Museum in July. Read the full review here!
For 10 days I will make a playlist on Spotify every day with one of my songs from my new album ‘Florida’ and some other songs from my favourite artists. So if you want to hear some great music make sure you tune in and listen. Links will be posted on Facebook and Twitter every day.
If you missed the first one yesterday, you can listen here!

I played at the same venue as Anton on South by Southwest in March and he and his band were great. Check it out!
