Singer/Songwriter
Sophie Coyote is a singer/songwriter from the small mid-western town of Waddams Grove, Illinois. Born in an old farm house surrounded by rolling fields. She was raised on a broad range of musical influences that include classic rock & roll, honky-tonk country and a bit of blues. This open mind of influence has led to a songwriting style that is reminiscent of the raw and honest age of music; lyrically driven with interesting stories, unique twists and word-play.
​
​ In March of 2022 she released a live recorded E.P. titled “Indigo Child” featuring 6 of her original songs. The E.P. was recorded on a small microphone with raw, single-take acoustic tracks showcasing Sophie’s songwriting talents as well as her unique vocal stylings. “Indigo Child is the bare-bones of my art, wait until you hear my songs with full production,” Coyote says. The E.P. propelled her into the regional music scene with a full schedule of performance dates around and throughout the Midwest.
Grand Rapids, MI is where Sophie's first full production song titled, “Venom” came to fruition. Showcasing producer Mark Lavengood’s talent on guitar, bass, mandolin & piano. The haunting fiddle was performed by Nashville, TN country artist Lillie Mae. Drums by Cassady Feasby of the Dierks Bentely band. With producer Misa Arriaga, Sophie went on to make her recently released single “Coyote Queen.'' Featuring six talented Nashville musicians, as well as some howling coyotes. Sophie’s full length album is set to release in 2024.
There isn’t another artist on the scene currently that so humbly delivers such a quality and complete package.
