SUPERCASSETTE & ASHLEIGH EYMANN

Thursday April 9th
Fortune Sound Club
Doors 8pm / 19+

Meet Vancouver’s rising vocal talent, Sophia Danai. Striking, and yet surprisingly unpretentious, this young star’s voice is as honest as her lyrics. With a sound that ranges from alternative R&B to sultry Electro-Pop, Okayplayer dubbed her a mix of Billie Holiday and Portishead, adding that she’s a “dynamic singer with an obvious foundation in soul”.

With a new-found sense of empowerment as an independent artist, Sophia has created a record in which the raw beauty of her voice takes centre stage. Her new album, Love Royale, is an evocative collection of songs intended to take the listener on a journey. Wanting more creative control to explore her artistry, Sophia has spent the last two years honing her production skills, and collaborating with a variety of artists and producers such as Grammy award winning, Jon Brown (Meghan Trainor, Pink) and Vancouver's own, Matt Brevner. Inspired by Brown's LA studio, built inside one of Marilyn Monroe's early homes, Sophia's upcoming single, Daytime Dreaming, has an essence of old Hollywood glamour. With its compelling arrangement of music and lyrics, Daytime Dreaming tells a story of longing for something more.

It is as easy to relate to Sophia's story as it is her talent. As a young girl, it was music that gave her shelter from an often difficult adolescence, and helped her find her identity and direction. Sophia began writing music as a way of coping, and along the way gained the confidence to believe she had something unique to share with the world. It is the ability to voice her pain and joy through music that gives her the strength to forge her way as an artist in the modern music industry.

With the release of her debut EP, Wishing Well, 2013 was a breakthrough year for Sophia. Wishing Well is produced by Grammy award winner Chin Injeti, and features Talib Kwali, Shad and DJ Khalil. Her song, "Higher Baby", was licensed to Appleton Rum for a nation wide advertising campaign, she’s also garnered two Juno nominations for her work with Madchild, and rising stars SonReal and Rich Kidd. Sophia, a dynamic performer, has shared the stage with Aloe Blacc, Quadron, and De La Soul. Other notable performances include last year's Manifesto Festival in Dundas Square Toronto, and the 102nd Grey Cup Festival in Vancouver.

Sophia, always evolving in her artistry, is a talent to watch for. Look out for her touring across Canada and the U.S. in support of Love Royale.

"If you can imagine a perfect balance between the sass of the Spice Girls and the depth of Aretha Franklin, it would be Sophia Danai. Not only does the sound of her voice pierce past your soul like a spear, but she also has as much energy and positivity as the sun." - ION MAGAZINE.
