Sophia Scott
Sophia Scott may originally hail from Boulder, CO, but the singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist found a home in Nashville, TN by continuing a time-honored tradition of storytelling with no shortage of gusto and grit. When it comes to her music, she writes from the heart, shoots from the hip, and holds nothing back. Instead of retreating, she confronts heartbreak head-on and emboldens audiences with the kind of confidence only earned by a lifelong grind. After a childhood immersed in music, she settled in Los Angeles for six years. She performed around town and even headlined her own residencies. Her cover of Tove Lo’s “Habits (Stay High)” took off and set the stage for buzzworthy originals such as “Closure.” Breaking through, “Quit” cracked 1 million Spotify streams, while Atwood Magazine raved, “Having grown up on classic rock, R&B, and country/soul. Scott takes care in crafting both the sound and meaning of her songs – never shirking one for another.” She claimed coveted real estate on Spotify’s New Music Friday with “White Fence,” “Drink Too Much Wine,” and “She Ain’t Me.” The latter notably amassed 10.1 million Spotify streams. Eventually, she picked up and moved to Nashville. Finding a foothold in Music City, she landed a deal with EMPIRE Nashville in 2021. She lent her voice to Iggy Azalea’s “Sex on the Beach” and opened for Jonas Brothers and Kelsea Ballerini. After racking up 20 million-plus streams independently, the songstress properly introduces herself on her 2022 debut EP for EMPIRE Nashville.
