Sophia Bel releases Lonely After Curfew and reveals details of her upcoming debut album
Sophia Bel presents the alternative country-influenced pop ballad, Lonely After Curfew. Written last winter when the Quebec government had instilled a mandatory curfew over the province, as its title suggests, the song, which explores fear of abandonment and codependency, follows the ultra-catchy and nostalgic pop-punk anthem 2AM (And I Did It Again), released last fall. Both singles will appear on Anxious Avoidant, the singer-songwriter and producer's debut full-length, due out April 15th, 2022. The album is now available for pre-order on vinyl, CD and digitally.
Lonely After Curfew’s melody comes together tenderly and results in a song in which Sophia Bel exposes the insecurities she can't communicate to the object of her affections. Combining Y2K influences with the reality of modern-day dating, the single explores vulnerability in relationships, revealing a different side of Sophia's talent and creativity.
Born during the pandemic, Anxious Avoidant is inspired by the colourful and playful sounds of the early 2000s. The album marks a stylistic progression in the career of the Montreal-based artist and producer, who, for the first time, composed her songs armed solely with her guitar. This new process influenced her writing style, and inevitably, the final outcome, offering a significant evolution from her first two EPs.
Sophia Bel also announces a handful of live dates slated for the spring. She will be presenting Anxious Avoidant at The Baby G in Toronto on May 11th, at Bar L'Anti in Québec City on May 13th, and finally, she will perform at Foufounes Électriques in Montreal on May 25th.
