Album Notes

”I know there’s something good in me” so sings Sofia Talvik on her new album ”Jonestown”, this DIY-artist who both runs her own label and finds new fans all over the world.
With ‘Jonestown’, Sofia Talvik has further evolved her sound, joining forces with respected artist and producer Tobias Fröberg, who has toured with José Gonzales and produced the artist Peter Morén from “Peter, Bjorn and John”.
Sweden’s most exciting up-and-coming singer/songwriter recently made it to the finals in the online talent competition Famecast which resulted in her being booked to the Lollapalooza festival in Chicago in August. Sofia has also been appointed artist of the week and songwriter of the month on the leading industry sites Hitquarters.com and Songquarters.com.

Sofia Talvik about her third album, ’Jonestown’:
– I watched a documentary on TV about the cult People’s Temple and it moved me so much that I wrote a song inspired by it.
’Jonestown’ later also became the title of my new album, says Sofia Talvik.
–I believe it’s important to believe in oneself and not just become a link in a chain. This song encourages people to evaluate their own abilities and the desicions they
make.

Sofia Talvik has been compared with great singers such as Joni Mitchell and has previously released two critically acclaimed albums, ’Blue Moon’ 2005 and ’Street of Dreams’ 2007. ’Jonestown’ is released in Sweden on her own label, Makaki Music.
