New single 'Bound To Fall' released on 13th May on Freak N See Music
French singer songwriter Sophie Delila now residing in London, has performed with none other than Plan B on tour and for BBC Radio 1's Live Lounge. She has written for the likes of Duffy and regularly performs live as a member of acclaimed French collective Nouvelle Vague.
Her latest offering ‘Calling You’ is available now to download free via Sophie’s Facebook page. A cover of Jevetta Steele’s original, Sophie’s rendition is a soulful, hazy and mellow yet upbeat version - perfect in time for spring. Sophie describes the track as “important to me because I learnt it on the piano very young as my dad loves that song, very inspirational."
Born into a very musical Parisian household (Ray Charles' manager was a close family friend, and house guests in their Parisian home included none other than Marvin Gaye), Sophie's story so far is nothing but extraordinary. After winning a scholarship to the prestigious Berkley School of Music in Boston at the age of just seventeen, Sophie moved to the US and ended up working in various studios and performing regularly in New York City. Sophie moved to London six years ago and she is now established as an accomplished songwriter and producer in her own right. Her windowless studio near Putney Bridge has provided her with the perfect opportunity to hone her craft, working with the likes of Aleks Josh, Jack Savoretti, and productions teams Monarchy and The Suppliers.
Following a sold out show at The Borderline last year, Sophie will be playing across the UK this May and June 2013 and at the Wilderness Festival on 8th August. Tickets are available from all usual outlets. Free download available via https://www.facebook.com/SophieDelila
