SUPPORTING MUSIC ICON STING IN JUNE
Today, rising star SOPHIE GREY. announces her brand new EP “Just Another Sonic Monday”, out on 30th May 2025, via Cherrytree Music Company, pre-save here. The announcement comes shortly after the release of her recent single, eighties inspired synth driven earworm, ‘On Hold’ stream here.
Speaking on the EP, SOPHIE GREY. says, “You’re on your phone, flipping through your apps and your screen suddenly flickers. You try to go back to your TikToks, but a message appears in neon: ‘Just Another Sonic Monday ™.’ This Retro Electro EP is now downloaded. Push Play.“
SOPHIE GREY. is taking on the world one song at a time armed with her keytar synth-axe and a propensity for writing, arranging, performing and producing her own modern electro, new wave-inspired music. This summer, she’ll be taking her “Retro Electro” sound across arenas in Europe when she opens for music icon Sting as well performing solo shows in Amsterdam and London as part of SXSW.
A classically-trained pianist and keyboardist who studied piano performance at Thornton School of Music at the University of Southern California, SOPHIE was mentored by songwriter and GRAMMY-award-nominated Dr. Patrice Rushen (“Forget Me Nots”). SOPHIE also honed her engineering and production skills growing up between Kansas City and Los Angeles where she worked at the renowned Village Recorder Studios.
SOPHIE’s original productions – which blend live instrumentation and sparkling electronic sounds – are informed by a deep-rooted love for soulful pop music, hip hop and 80’s-flavored beats. SOPHIE describes her sound as “Retro Electro,” also the name of her 2024 recent album. Her previous single “Dark Lights” featuring Rolling Loud performer/rapper Robb Bank$ has already garnered over half a million streams.
When not writing and recording her own songs, SOPHIE is a sought-after live and session musician. Most recently, she has been touring with America’s Got Talent’s Lily Meola playing piano, keyboards and singing backing vocals. SOPHIE has also recently appeared on ABC’s Good Morning America accompanying GRAMMY-award, multi-platinum artist Shaggy on the keyboards. She’ll be performing at SxSW London this coming June and touring across the UK and Continental Europe this summer.
