New York, New York

March 23, 2008

universalSome of you know this was a B-side on my first single “Stop”, the song “New York, New York” that is. Anyways, after a long trip through California and Nevada I ended up in New York for some meetings. Then I headed back to cold and snowy Sweden (hey I thought it would be spring by now).
I had a lovely meeting at Universal and met with the cool rock band Nova Clutch in Brooklyn.

Promo tour in the US

February 12, 2008

sofia promoSo I’ve just arrived in San Francisco, the first stop on my US promo tour for my upcoming album. And no, sorry there won’t be a lot of gigs for you guys to check out, it’s mostly business this time, but I will share a few moments with you anyway.
The first thing scheduled was a photoshoot for Music Fashion Magazine and their “band fashion spread”. Talanted photographer Shelby Duncan made me pose with toy horses and San Franciscian signature windows.
