Album Notes

SONiA is an award winning songwriter from Baltimore (home of John Waters and Hairspray. She has gained a devoted fan base in countries around the world. Her powerful honesty touches the hearts and minds of people of all social and ethnic backgrounds, underpinned as they are by the simple belief that people are people and love is love.

She writes political songs with the passion that we saw in the 60's with a new generations eyes. She has sang with Peter, Paul and Mary on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial and joined students around the world in searching for open communication between people.

This new album features songs that were inspired from personal as well as world events. Won't Let Go is a personal song about her fathers struggle with an illness that will have you reaching for the tissue. I am The Enemy speaks of the tragedy of 911 but finds her voice in Arabic, Hebrew and English. Sugarcane highlights the human kindness that one person brings to this same event.

Bucket of Blues gives us the first taste of why SONiA has been featured on Blues stages in Switzerland, Australia, New Zealand, the USA and Fiji.

This album shows the strength of SONiA's songwriting as well as the musicianship that has filled audiences around the world. As Billboard Magazine wrote after her last live album, "She is not to be missed".
