Event Description
MAIN BAR
Sophie Ogilvie is an indie singer and songwriter based in Montréal, Quebec. Approaching songwriting with the confessional lyricism folk and an indie rock penchant for pop song structures, Ogilvie’s sound is set apart by her deft command of the voice. Ogilvie and Steward first collaborated in dream pop band Helen Paradise, releasing an EP, External World, in 2021. Around the same time, Ogilvie began writing songs that felt distinct from that project, experimenting at home with guitar tunings and production techniques. Trained in classical and jazz voice and experienced in choral arrangement, Ogilvie here becomes her own choir, piling up layers of vibrato until they take on an almost otherworldly quality, adding a shimmering depth to her sound.
