NEW YORK, NY – October 6, 2022 – GRAMMY-nominated, platinum-selling artist, prolific songwriter and spellbinding live performer Sophie B. Hawkins has kicked off her next era in what has been a trailblazing career with the release of her brand-new single “Love Yourself.” PRESS HERE to listen. Rooted in her raw yet poetic lyrics and effortlessly captivating vocals, the song is a soul-stirring piece of symphonic pop about self-love and the way we talk to ourselves, re-framing our inner dialogue to change patterns and bring healing. Sophie will be rolling out more new music, culminating in an album next year. It’s an exciting new creative chapter for the legendary artist whose indelible hit songs such as “Damn, I Wish I Was Your Lover” and “As I Lay Me Down” have been featured in cultural touchstone TV shows and films (from recent hits Stranger Things, Euphoria, Ozark, and PEN15, to landmark series Beverly Hills, 90210, Dawson’s Creek, The L Word and more) and who has always been ahead of her time with her steadfast activism supporting such causes as environmental protection, animal rights and LGBTQ equality; using her songwriting and platform for positive change with the forward-thinking, pioneering outlook she has championed all along.
“‘Love Yourself’ is an opportunity in every moment to create a positive feeling, a happy feeling about oneself and one’s life path – no matter what – it’s a choice, and a power,” said Sophie. “Loving myself is a super power.”
Known for her captivating live shows that erase the divide between audience and performer, Sophie is currently on the road celebrating her new music and the 30th Anniversary of her iconic, critically-acclaimed, platinum-selling debut album Tongues and Tails. She’ll also be joining Paula Cole and Judy Collins on select dates – full routing can be found below, and PRESS HERE for tickets and more information.
Sophie’s ever-evolving career has also included releasing six widely beloved albums, breaking chart records with her smash hit, four worldwide singles from Whaler and a starring role as Janis Joplin in the critically acclaimed musical Room105.
A dynamic creative force, Sophie has always been fully involved in every aspect of the production of her records herself, from background vocals and playing her own instruments as a multi-instrumentalist, to engineering and production of her albums. She has proved to be an enduring artist with a fierce commitment to artistic integrity while both constantly evolving and remaining steadfastly true to her own authentic history and experience which connects her to her fans at the very deepest levels.
