MUSIC

Sophia has been playing music since she was a kid both in and out of school, recording songs she wrote on her 4 track, 8 track, and later computer. She studied electroacoustics in University, and enjoys mixing different recorded elements into songs. She goes through phases of writing and recording, the last of which was summer 2008. In 2009 she became the keyboardist and backup singer for an amazing indie pop band in LA called "Light FM" (pictured). www.myspace.com/lightfm They just released their third album "Let There be Light FM" which Sophia sings on, and celebrated by playing the October residency at the popular indie club Spaceland. They also opened for Billy Corgan of the Smashing Pumpkins, with more shows to come.

You can buy the album "Let There be Light FM" on your iTunes music player or on CD Baby. You can also buy the last great album called "Black Magic Marker" on iTunes. Below are Sophia's solo recordings for your enjoyment or depression! Sophia has always found music to be the healthiest form of therapy, so some songs are sad and political.
