Like a cup of tea after a rainy day, Sophie’s music warms a weary soul. Years of travelling alone through South America and studies in anthropology have shaped her into an empathetic and compassionate musician. Witty, authentic and relevant, she incorporates jazzy elements to her characteristic indie soul. With a voice reminiscent of the crisp morning air and a minimalist piano style, she will make you feel at home outside of your comfort zone. If you like Allen Stone, Laila Biali or Maggie Rogers you’ll love Sophie D’Orléans.
