Sofia Talvik is a Swedish singer/songwriter.
Sofia Talvik was born on an island just off the west coast of Sweden. Soft, airy, and graceful, Sweden’s sweet Sofia Talvik sings songs touching on themes of love and heartbreak, as well as a healthy dose of anecdotal stories from her own life. At the tender age of eighteen she left behind the comfort of home for the bright lights and lonely nights of Stockholm. There every experience, good and bad, would soon take the form of a beautiful, funny or heartbreaking story destined to capture the hearts and minds of all who would hear the words when set to Sofia’s gentle vocal backed by minimal instrumentation: an acoustic guitar, cellos, double bass, soft percussion and sometimes piano. After releasing a low key but critically acclaimed EP, in 2005, Sofia Talvik released her debut album, Blue Moon, to much acclaim, followed by 2007’s “Street of Dreams”, on which she sings, “It’s just love, how hard can it be“, in a beautiful duet with veteran British performer Bernard Butler, from British band Suede. As a writer, artist and producer she oversaw every step of the process and the result is an album where the lyrics take centre stage and the melodies provide the essence.

for me she sounds just like Joni Mitchell... Still, her new songs are more poppy than anything Joni would do. (I love it lol)

Hi friends, this is a humble request so please bear with me. I’m trying to raise funds for my new album “L”, the first EP of an four piece EP saga called L.O.V.E, and I’d be very grateful if you could help. As a thank-you you can download the EP free once it’s completed. It would mean a great deal to me if you would be a part of this musical saga. The minimum pledge of 10$ gets you the download when it’s done, but if you can also invest in exclusive items that I have for sale and get the download for free. http://www.pledgemusic.com/projects/1490

Thank you for supporting me as an artist and for listening to my music. Thanks to you I've been able to continue producing music, and this month I just released my fourth album "Florida" I run my own record label and I produce and release all my work on my own, and I'm also running my own online shop. It's very important for me to have a close relationship with my fans. All orders are handled and shipped out from my own little home here in Stockholm, Sweden. SHOP: http://sofiatalvik.com/shop
