ABOUT
Sophie Rose is a writer, a producer, a singer, a friend, a daughter, an avid reader, an amateur chef, and more, but what Sophie is to her core is an artist. She takes her life experiences and transforms them into music and lyrics to create clever, honest, and beautiful pieces of work. She expresses that same care and thoughtfulness in all aspects of her life, striving to always be a self-proclaimed “work in progress.” In her song “Frida Kahlo,” she writes, “let my heart break, it’s fine, if it’ll open my mind.”
Sophie has always been introspective, even in childhood. She began writing songs at age 9, returning home from school and running straight to her bedroom with a guitar and a notebook - in between episodes of Hannah Montana, of course. She then started performing those songs at local events in her hometown of Calabasas, CA to audiences of supportive friends and family. As her love for her craft grew, Sophie started homeschooling to fully focus on music then graduated high school at the age of 14.
As a young teen, Sophie attended countless music events and conferences with her mom, including Durango Songwriters Expo, where she met her first collaborators. At an event put on by AIMP, she ended up connecting with songwriter Ester Dean, which lead to a publishing deal with the hit writer and indie powerhouse Prescription Songs. Around that time, Sophie decided to learn how to produce as well as write, and quickly landed a MasterCard commercial using a song she wrote and produced by herself when she was 14 years old. Since signing her publishing deal, Sophie has balanced writing and producing for other artists with writing and producing for herself.
Behind the scenes, Sophie’s work has spanned many genres and mediums. Recently, Sophie co-wrote many songs on Alexander Stewart’s debut EP Aftermath, as well as Executive Producing the project. She co-wrote and produced Nick Galitzine’s debut single “Comfort,” which has seen a major uptick in streams since the release of the viral Netflix movie Purple Hearts in which he stars. In the film and TV world, Sophie’s work includes co-writing the single “Ugly” by Anitta for the UglyDolls movie soundtrack, Martina McBride’s “Girls Like Me” from Songland, and “When I’m Crying” by Megan McKenna performed on X Factor.
As an artist herself, Sophie has released two solo EPs and many collaborations. Her first release, “Limitless” with Sam F, has gone on to amass over 10 million streams, reach #2 at Dance Radio and #9 on the Billboard Dance Mix Show/Airplay Chart, and secure a major synch in the Samsung Galaxy S8 campaign.
Sophie's self-written and self-produced debut solo single "Two Young Lovers” was featured on Spotify's New Music Friday playlist, streaming 50,000 times on its first day. Shorty after, Taylor Swift added it to her Favorite Songs playlist on Apple Music.
Sophie then released her debut EP which she wrote and produced herself, with single “Best Friend” landing on 18 of Spotify’s New Music Friday playlists across the world and streaming over 100,000 times on its first day.
The EP, Spring, came out shortly after Sophie wrapped up her first ever tour. She secured the support slot on Nina Nesbitt’s North American tour after posting a cover of Nina’s song “The Best You Had,” which was also featured on Taylor Swift’s Favorite Songs playlist, on her Instagram and catching Nina’s attention.
Since then, Sophie has continued collaborating as well as making her own music, releasing her second EP This Is What 21 Feels Like in 2021. Created mostly during lockdown, this body of work is Sophie’s most introspective yet.
Sophie’s most recent EP Natural Disaster was released October 13th and is her favorite music she’s made to date. Over 2 years in the making, the highly anticipated release is finally here.
