Sophie Jamieson
Description
Sophie Jamieson, London-based singer-songwriter, makes her Belfast debut on 8th February in the intimate surroundings of the Good Room in the Duncairn.
Sophie Jamieson is a London-based singer-songwriter, known for delivering uncomfortably honest songs direct to the heart. Her career began on the 2012 London new-folk scene and spans initial early success, a breakdown, a withdrawal from music for many years followed by a comeback which culminated with her debut album, “Choosing” being released on Bella Union Records, 10 years after she first emerged.
Sophie’s experience of these ups and downs can be heard in her deep, raw voice which pivots from wobbling vulnerability to soaring, pent-up longing unleashed. Committed to releasing the deepest corners of her humanity on the stage in the most uncompromising way, this has not gone unnoticed over the years while she has opened for the likes of Father John Misty, Ezra Furman and Marika Hackman to name a few. “Choosing” received widespread critical acclaim for its candid examination of the self-destructive urge, with high praise from the likes of Uncut, Mojo and The Financial Times.
Her second LP, “I still want to share” will be released on Bella Union in January 2025. A record of flourished ambition, intricate song-writing, expanded heart and deepened voice, Sophie is not slowing down in her commitment to hold nothing back, to face the ugly longings of the human race with love, curiosity and acceptance.
