Sophie: posthumous final album to be released in September
Self-titled album, to be released in September, was almost finished before the Grammy nominee died in 2021, aged 34
The album was nearly completed when Sophie died, the artist’s music labels – Australia’s Future Classic and UK’s Transgressive Records – announced in a joint statement on Monday. Oil of Every Pearl’s Un-Insides was nominated for a Grammy for best dance/electronic album and was one of the year’s best-reviewed releases, with the Guardian writing: “Sophie has crafted a genuinely original sound and uses it to visit extremes of terror, sadness and pleasure.” Sophie went on to work with the likes of Madonna, rapper Vince Staples, indie duo Let’s Eat Grandma, and pop singers Charli XCX and Kim Petras.
