Artist Spotlight

Sophie Hunter is an emerging artist from New Haven, Connecticut, now based in Brooklyn, New York. After studying English at Yale, she began writing music privately, drawn to the creative freedom it offered. What began as a hobby quickly became a passion, leading her to pursue music. Now, her style blends alternative pop and rap into a distinctive, genre-bending sound she describes as "ctrl_alt + pop + rap."


With the release of “Dance Recital,” Sophie Hunter offers an irresistible first glimpse into her debut album Stereoscope, a project built on the idea that depth emerges when two opposing perspectives exist side by side. The single is an energetic, feel-good introduction that effortlessly blends playful confidence with emotional sincerity, showcasing Hunter’s knack for balancing the sexy, the carefree, and the deeply felt.


Rather than choosing between lighthearted fun and emotional weight, "Dance Recital" thrives in the space where those contrasts collide. The result is a track that feels instinctive yet meticulously realized, inviting listeners into a world where vulnerability and exuberance coexist. 


As Sophie Hunter steps into this new chapter, “Dance Recital makes it clear that Stereoscope is more than  a debut, its the arrival of a distinct artistic voice with a compelling vision and the momentum to match.
