SOFY: PPL Momentum Music Fund
Short Project Title: SOFY – Debut Album Tour
Bio: SOFY exists in the gaps between genres. Taking the tension of trip-hop, the immediacy of Britpop and the edge of garage rock, she has built a sound that feels unmistakably her own. It’s witty, melodic and uncompromising. Long before her first official release, SOFY’s demos were already earning spins on BBC Radio 1 and drawing praise from the likes of Arlo Parks and Sam Fender. Within a year, the Leicester-born songwriter was playing Glastonbury Festival and landing on the FIFA soundtrack, marking the start of a relentless three-year run that saw her release two EPs and two full-length mixtapes, all while remaining fiercely independent. That momentum fueled sold-out headline shows, major festival main stages, and support slots alongside Liam Gallagher, Kasabian, and Sabrina Carpenter. In September 2026, she releases her debut album, How To Perform Magic – her most experimental and vulnerable work to date.Described by Dork as “the voice of a generation… a much-needed messiah for the messy”, SOFY stands as one of the most compelling new voices in British guitar music.
