Song Diaries

The Orchestral Greatest HitsSophie's Orchestral Greatest Hits will be her seventh studio album and is the follow-up to her recent album Familia and previous record Wanderlust, both of which charted in the Top 10 and marked a change in musical direction for her. With six Top 10 singles over her 21-year musical career, she is returning back to her original disco roots on The Song Diaries, which will feature her biggest hits, but not as you've heard them before. Singles such as Murder On The Dancefloor and Groovejet (If This Ain't Love), which was the most played record on UK radio between 2000 and 2010, have been re-worked with beautiful orchestral arrangements to create new versions of Sophie's biggest hits and the album includes orchestral versions of 6 top 10 singles. Production on the record comes from acclaimed singer-songwriter Ed Harcourt, who also produced Familia and Wanderlust, with string arrangements from Amy Langley of Dirty Pretty Strings and additional production by David Arnold, renowned for his TV and film compositions, including five James Bond films. Sophie recently performed tracks from The Song Diaries at her biggest London headline show to date at the Royal Festival Hall alongside a 30-piece band and orchestra. She will be taking The Song Diaries on the road in 2019 with a full orchestra and band for a UK tour and tickets are on sale now. Joyous, exhilarating reinvention and reminiscence" - Evening Standard
