Sophia Kennedy

Squeaky-bright and yet dark: Sophia Kennedy manages to inhabit both worlds, as her most recent album »Squeeze Me« once again proves. A disillusioned commentary on the status quo, it engages with the complexity of human relationships, questions of power, self-determination, and submission, bringing together pop appeal, minimalist dancefloor charm, and psychedelic excursions.

The Hamburg-based artist with the unmistakable voice has, since her self-titled debut in 2017, consistently created musical worlds of cinematic quality – both through her albums and in collaborations (including with Stella Sommer and DJ Koze) – worlds that draw listeners fully into their orbit. Hardness and beauty, wit and melancholy, fatalism and strength: Sophia Kennedy turns certainties upside down. An evening with Sophia Kennedy will accordingly be atmospheric, intense, charming, and always surprising.
