Sofia Talvik's Distressing Christmas Songs and Others

Time today for some seasonal music, but, of course, with a twist. Sofia Talvik has joined us twice before, and with the release of her 2^nd compilation of her annual Christmas songs, songs which Sofia has written to explore the wider experience of Christmas, including the distressing and challenging sides of the holiday, we again reached out across the sea to her, to Berlin, Germany, where this Swedish-born folk artist sometimes lives when she's not touring the USA or living in her other home in Spain. Her music is sweet & moving, her voice is evocative & uplifting, and her lyrics are deep & wide-ranging. Find her also on Bandcamp, including the music for her 2 alternative Christmas-focused albums, Wrapped In Paper and When Winter Comes.
