SOPHIE AUSTER is back after her maternity break with a new album and a tour of Germany in May. "Milk for Ulcers" - the title of her fourth studio album, which will be released in 2025 - is, according to her, the most intimate and emotional album she has ever written. Now she wants to take it out into the world and share it with her fans live.
SOPHIE AUSTER, the daughter of two writers, grew up in a creative environment where artists and musicians from all disciplines came and went. She discovered her passion for singing at the age of eight and released her first album at sixteen. Two years later, this album was produced by Naive Records in France and acclaimed by critics across Europe, marking the beginning of her touring career. AUSTER attracted the attention of renowned fashion houses early on and appeared as a model at exclusive events for Chanel, Dior and Ferragamo. In 2019, she secured a publishing and recording contract with BMG, which released her album "Next Time". In the same year, her single "Mexico" was featured in John Turturro's film "The Jesus Rolls". Over the course of her career, AUSTER has received numerous awards, including the top prize in the John Lennon Songwriting Contest for her song "Little Bird" and the honor of Female Vocalist of the Year by Cosmopolitan Spain.
In an age of AI algorithms, artificially generated feelings and an extremely short attention span, SOPHIE AUSTER is an artist who offers an alternative concept with her music. Although her songs are about personal loss, the emotions they deal with, such as grief and anger in the face of uncontrollable events, are universal and unifying. They create a contrast to a media world that promotes isolation rather than community and often fails to recognize the value of such feelings.
