"[Sophia Bastian] brings an eclectic and quite sultry mix of blues, hip hop and soul to the table and it's definitely a memorable act." - OkayPlayer
The lyrics to "Breaking" tell a story all-to-relatable to anyone who's found themselves in a one-sided love relationship, destined for heartbreak. Sophia admits, "I basically spent a few days in my room in hiding, listening to music not particularly working on songs. I was pretty devastated, and my emotional state set the chords. And the chords kind of just triggered the lyrics…I'm way too proud to have ever said this to someone in real life."
Sophia Bastian and her band have been playing riotous shows in NYC and LA including opening for The Roots. Prepare to discover one of 2013's artists to watch!
