Sofia Talvik: Street of Dreams
Street of Dreams, Sofia Talvik’s second album, released last year, absolutely nails the folk-pop target that I think she has been aiming for. Perhaps genre-fying her music is a little vulgar – it doesn’t deserve that simplistic treatment. The album crosses the path laid by Heidi Berry 20 years ago – check out Jozsef Nemeth’s piano on this song if you want to play Snap – and that’s a very good thing.
Sofia undersells herself via the lyrics of the title track, whilst making the point musically and vocally that she’s achieving her goals. A new album Jonestown is due out later this year.
