IN the beautiful town of Ísafjörður, Iceland, Sofia Dragt heard a calling from nature and the surroundings. Without hesitation, she grabbed a field recorder and hit the road, capturing those beautiful, transient moments with her natural artistic instinct.

The sound of passing cars, a boot in the mud became the swell and percussive sounds in “Temporary Gold.” The breadth of the landscape, the taste of the air, the smile of the people, and the colors of the surroundings are effortlessly and elegantly orchestrated in the melodies and moods that are organically imprinted into her own sound.

As a musical artist, Sofia Dragt also writes for media and film. You can hear the impressionistic, ambient influence subtly intertwined with the nuance of her vocal performance.

“Temporary Gold” is an immersive, healing experience as if the spirit of the mountains has blessed the track. A deep form of happiness and joy is being expressed in the music that feels cathartic on an emotional level.

“I’m a bit of a loner when it comes to writing music,” said the artist and thus, she creates the sound from scratch, nurtures and polishes them until they are exactly the way she likes. Every piece of music has tiny stardust of her soul in them that feels alive and spiritual. It’s deeply moving and connected.
