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’m going to perform all the songs from my new album “The Owls Are Not What They Seem” live from different places in the US during my tour and put them up on YouTube. Here’s the first song from the album “Delusional”, recorded in Bossier City, LA.
Kjell-Åke Glimberg brought his camera to my latest gig here in Stockholm and shot some of the songs I played. Here’s ‘Jonestown’ live at Lasse i Parken. Enjoy!

I’m releasing my new album Florida on YouTube. Over a couple of months I will be doing animated videos of the lyrics to each song on the album. When the whole video version of the album is released I will compile all videos and make it available as a download.
First out is the title track of the album.
Florida
I have a lovely new official video for my song ‘King of the Willow Tree’ from my new album ‘Florida’. The video is a beautiful tale of two alligators’ love life (maybe one of them is the albino one on my album cover!?).
It’s made by Dan Turesson. Check out Dan’s youtube profile here to see more of his work, he makes a lot of animated videos and this video he made for me is really soooo lovely!
Thank you so much Dan!
Here’s a short clip from today’s session at Full Sail University. I had a really nice group of aspiring engineers to work with today. Unfortunately there’s no music in the clip as it’s from after the actual session, but I’m throwing in a short preview of the song we recorded today.
It’s called “Florida” and the group joined me in the song booth for the chorus.
