Sophye Soliveau’s music is a collision of R’n’B, jazz, nu-soul, gospel, and folk, imbued with a profound sense of purity. Drawing from a wealth of inspirations, the harpist, singer, and leader of an Afro-feminist choir crafts compositions influenced by the likes of Alice Coltrane, Bobby McFerrin, and Angie Stone. Her self-produced album "INITIATION" (2024) emerges from the transformative power of improvisation, charting her journey toward healing and freedom. This debut release, received with overwhelming enthusiasm, sets the stage for a promising musical trajectory from an artist with a singular voice.
