Named “Best Undiscovered Artist” by VH1, she has collaborated with the likes of Metallica’s Jason Newstead, Psychotica, and Joey Ramone, and performed as vocalist with an incredible variety of artists, including Screaming Headless Torsos, Government Mule, Rod Stewart, Jennifer Hudson and Jefferson Starship. Sophia is a veteran live and studio vocalist and voiceover artist. Her talents in both English and Spanish have been employed in countless commercials and jingles. Sophia has released two CDs of killer rock & roll, Her Majesty and Revelator, co-written and produced by guitarist Billy White. In Fall 2014, Sophia appeared at The Berkeley Repertory Theatre as a featured actor and vocalist in PARTY PEOPLE an original play about the ambitions and regrets of the 1960s revolutionary groups the Black Panthers and Young Lords. PARTY PEOPLE is directed by Liesl Tommy and created/produced by UNIVERSES, an award-winning ensemble that fuses theater, poetry, music, rap and politics.
