SOFY

On 8 October 2026 at Brudenell Social Club in Leeds, SOFY brings her hybrid take on UK alternative pop. Raised in Leicester, she lines up trip-hop tension, Britpop melody and a streak of garage-rock energy, letting the parts rub against each other rather than blur. An independent songwriter at the outset, she pushed early demos into the world before any official release; they reached BBC Radio 1 and drew attention from Arlo Parks, Sam Fender and Yungblud. From there she moved to the stage, from Glastonbury to tighter headline rooms, while building a catalogue across singles, two EPs and two longform mixtapes.

Live, the centre of gravity is clear: direct choruses, everyday storytelling and guitar textures that skew a little darker, keeping a pop core up front with grain and nervous swing. Her path has included support slots and shared bills with Liam Gallagher and Sabrina Carpenter, and her tracks have appeared on the EA Sports FC soundtrack. In Leeds, that mix of immediacy and rough edges frames a set that cuts to the point without smoothing it out.
