Unmistakably Nordic in flavor, the North Sea siren Sofia Talvik somehow still conforms to American interpretations of her own original music, blending sparkle and melancholy, creating a special niche of folk music that has been described as neo-folk. She is a veteran performer with six full-length albums as well as numerous EPs, singles and tours behind her.
Growing up in Sweden her music has always had a special tint of her Scandinavian heritage, making her a favorite among music lovers, but her 16-month, 37-state tour through the USA has moved her new album "Big Sky Country" closer to the Americana tradition.

In her "home away from home," Talvik has been compared with giants like Joni Mitchell and Judy Collins, as well as fellow Swedes "First Aid Kit," but she has her own raw quality, a down to earth sound that makes her brilliant songwriting shimmer even more. She doesn't have to hide behind the sounds; her songs and performance speak for themselves.
