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.
