Sophia Stel is a Vancouver-based producer and singer-songwriter redefining the boundaries of alternative pop and electronic music. Her sound—an immersive fusion of lush synths, breakbeats, organic guitars, and ethereal yet commanding vocals—feels both nostalgic and futuristic, deeply personal yet expansive. Her 2022 debut single, "ineedthat," set the tone for her sonic vision, blending early 2000s post-grunge with euphoric rave energy. The track's self-directed video was praised for its bold exploration of queer identity. In 2024, she released Object Permanence (PACK. Records), a textured, emotionally charged EP exploring themes of memory, identity, and longing. A Placid Angles remix by John Beltran followed, with a Deluxe EP—also featuring Vitesse X and Margo XS remixes and her hit single "I'll Take It". Sophia's hypnotic live performances have made her a standout presence, sharing stages with Loukeman, Hyd, and EKKSTACY. Opening for A.G. Cook at LA's Masonic Lodge in 2024 highlighted her raw vocal delivery and magnetic stage presence. Her sound resonates with fans of 070 Shake, Caroline Polachek, and George Clanton, blending emotional storytelling with cutting-edge production. Named one of NME's 100 Essential Emerging Artists of 2025, Sophia Stel is rapidly building a global audience, driven by a sound that pushes boundaries with every release. Her most fully realized work yet—How to Win At Solitaire—was just released on September 5th.
