London-based artist Sofia & The Antoinettes today releases her new single “INTROSPECTION” — a soul-searching reflection on identity. Co-written and produced by Grammy award winning producer Rob Bisel, “INTROSPECTION” is the latest in a string of spectral, intimate songs that are full of small, unique details; inviting listeners to join Sofia in her lyrical world of poets and romance. “INTROSPECTION” arrives with a music video directed by long-time collaborator and contemporary artist Joan Horrach, and captures Sofia performing onstage in a grand theatre. It is on this stage that Sofia is building a word-of-mouth following with her vivid lyricism, distinctive vocal ability and incredible stage presence. Starting a residency at Bar Doña in Stoke Newington under the concept of Women Who Love Too Much, inspired by Robin Norwood’s 1985 classic, Sofia interchanges female emotion and destruction with every performance — Women Who Cry Too Much, Women Who Smoke Too Much, and Women Who Think Too Much. It is under this concept that Sofia titles her stunning debut EP “Women Who Love Too Much”, set for release on September 26th. Sofia will perform songs from the project this Autumn, as she gets ready to support Lola Young at venues across the UK, including Brixton Academy on October 15th. Following the release of “INSTROSPECTION”, she will also be Jess Iszatt’s Featured Artist on BBC Introducing in London.

Finding home in East London, Sofia writes for women who find themselves drawn to painful and unbalanced relationships, who feel things deeply and see romance in the everyday. Inspired by artists and poets including Leonard Cohen, Lana Del Rey, Joni Mitchell, Bob Dylan and Sylvia Plath, Sofia is meticulous with her lyricism and describes her output as "existentialism in high heels.” Releasing her first single “Matthew” late last year, Sofia started turning love letters into songs in 2024. I’ve been avoiding writing about you / but how are you Matthew? You felt a little like Vegas / so I went and put my money all on you, Sofia laments in Matthew. Last month Sofia released the marching “Spiralling”, singing: I could walk you home the long way tonight / I could write you a love song, only if you like / I’ve been talking about you to God, and she thinks you’re nice.

“God in my world is a woman,” says Sofia, “and the weakness or softness we possess, is a weapon”. If Sofia Coppola and David Lynch met at a flea market, and bought a dead woman’s life letters of love and wrote a script together, you might find something that resembles Sofia & The Antoinettes; a startling new talent.
