Sophie B. Hawkins

GRAMMY Award Nominated SOPHIE B. HAWKINS burst onto the international music scene with her 1992 platinum-selling debut album TONGUES AND TAILS, which included the indelible hit song “Damn, I Wish I Was Your Lover.” The last three decades have brought multiple awards, sold-out concerts, memorable appearances on film and television, collaborations with the best-known names in the business, an acclaimed documentary feature, a critically lauded performance as Janis Joplin in the nationally touring play ROOM 105, and seven additional albums including WHALER, which featured the record-breaking, longest-running single in Billboard Adult Contemporary chart history, “As I Lay Me Down.” Released in 2023, her latest album FREE MYSELF embodies a bold, new chapter of artistic perseverance and independence, while featuring some of her most soul-stirring songs about love, resilience and self-empowerment. Currently, Sophie is working on an original “playsical” that is now in development. She is also in the process of recording her ninth album.

Much more than a singer, Sophie writes all of her own music, is a multi-instrumentalist, and has been fully involved in every aspect of the production of her records. An enduring artist with a fierce commitment to her creative integrity, she is also a passionate activist, who is devoted to LGBTQ+ advocacy, animal rights and environmental causes, as well as the support and promotion of her fellow female musicians.
