New York City-based singer-songwriter Sophie Strauss has announced the release of her forthcoming debut EP, Yeah No Fine. In between shifts selling peaches at the Santa Monica farmers market, Strauss recorded the EP, which is as much a glance at the California landscape as it is a portrait of the cramped isolation of NYC, informed by musical influences such as Van Morrison, Jenny Lewis and Fiona Apple.
At 22, Sophie has created a complicated, relatable album evoking indie pop and Americana, updated with electric guitar, synth, and lyrics that are as playful as they are wrenching. Get a sneak peek of what’s to come with the sonic splendifery of “In The Freezer”:
