Sofia Talvik’s new album Center of the Universe has entered the Folk Radio USA Charts at #14 for August 2023, with the lead single charting in the top 10. Critical reception has been exceptional on both sides of the Atlantic.
“Swedish folk singer, songwriter, and guitarist Sofia Talvik has been making fine albums for many years now, but this self-produced latest entry may be her best to date. Her angelic vocals, which sound redolent of early Marianne Faithfull, remain a major asset, as are her original songs, which combine lilting melodies with frequently profound lyrics. Too few artists today offer protest material, but Talvik seems to have picked up the mantle from singer/songwriters like Joan Baez, Buffy Sainte-Marie, and Pete Seeger.” — Americana Highways
