Sofia Talvik plays a show at the Museum before Lollapalooza

Thursday, July 31st, the Swedish American Museum will be hosting a special performance by an incredible Swedish singer-songwriter Sofia Talvik. She’ll be playing at Lollapalooza the following day, so this is a special chance to catch her in a more intimate setting. There’s a bio on our site, but here are some quick highlights:

  • She has a recent single out performing a duet with Bernard Butler of Suede called “It’s Just Love”
  • On her latest album, which she put out on her own label, she collaborated with Tobias Fröberg, whose worked with several great musicians, including a favorite - Jose Gonzalez.
  • She’s done everything herself - not just the songwriting, playing, and singing - but runs her own records label, does her own promotions, and consistently puts out incredibly beautiful music.

Please see our event page for all of the info!

And she has a new tour blog on Aftonbladet.se documenting this trip to the States!!
