Sofie Winterson’s music creates a cinematic world through atmospheric key sounds, electronic drums, reverb(ed) guitars and her powerful, beautiful voice. She draws inspiration from a mix of shoegaze, dreampop and folk acts like Mazzy Star, Beach House, Alvvays, Big Thief, Whitney and Real Estate. Since her first releases in 2014 she continued to garner a online following fanbase with encouraging nods from the likes of Gorilla vs Bear, Clash Music, Nowness and The 405. She played SXSW multiple times and toured the US West-Coast extensively. Sofie is from Amsterdam but also resides in Los Angeles where she found like minds in music. 2015 saw Sofie Winterson turn heads, unveiling the enchanting visuals for ‘Dreams’, a moody coming of age track on Nowness; the title track from her critically acclaimed debut EP. The following year she was part off the Red Bull Music Academy in Montreal which led to a performance at Sonar. A new album entitled ‘Sophia Electric’ is set to release November 2nd 2018 via Excelsior Recordings. Not only her solo work got received with cheers, she also colaborated on the Fatima Yamaha album ‘Imaginary Lines’, and San Holo on his single 'Lift me from the Ground'
