Sophie Hutchings is an Australian composer who flourishes in an outdoor lifestyle. You can experience this in her utterly jaw-dropping visuals, linked here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u8C0ABRhsGc , that embrace rugged nature, with director Mu Tunc. Or perhaps, the way Sophie conveys her feelings about her natural surroundings, both verbally and musically. Sophie’s epic, forward-thinking piano-centric music has been noticed by tastemakers like Radio 1’s Chillest Show and Jorja Smith’s stunning Tearjerker podcast and more. Light Over the Moor is the last single before the Love & Keep EP is revealed. It gently explores an unpredictable expanse of land. It may be interpreted as a vulnerable reflection of our current lifestyles and the constant, unexpected, adaptation to the world we’re living in.

"Light Over the Moor is a kind of symbolism which equates to the tentativeness that has been surrounding our lives, yet appreciating and preserving beauty. Moors can be beautiful yet unpredictable places with hidden perils. You can see the sun disappear behind a cloud, to then be followed by a sudden storm only to find a few moments later the sun is shining again ... It’s kind of how we’ve all been living from day to day the past year, perhaps not knowing, yet still set on seeing the sun peaking through again." - Sophie Hutchings

Instead of leaning towards the (arguably) traditional outlets of a teenager, Sophie grew up drawing on the mindful, meditative benefits of the ocean and the environment around her. It came naturally to Sophie to weave elements of this medicinal effect through her work. When Sophie wasn’t riding the waves, or absorbing the changing scenes of the horizon, Sophie was thrown into her Father’s vast jazz collection or her older brothers’ love of heavy indie rock.

Although creating, crafting and tweaking her music comes naturally, Sophie prefers to work internally, immersing herself in sound, rather than launching herself into the world of the stage. Her music has been described by The Guardian as holding “an intimate contemplative quality; sometimes melancholic, often with an exhilarating beauty.”

The upcoming Love & Keep EP will be dropping on the 28th of May. It’s a body of work that brings tranquillity into an uncertain space and looks at the value life and friendships can bring no matter what you are facing. Love & Keep exposes a profound self-discovery journey that analyses connection, embracing the unpredictable, sometimes volatile, nature of the world, and how sleep is fundamentally intertwined in everything we do. Recorded in the dead of night, this six-track EP looks at the sometimes expanse of sleep as a quiet, reflective beauty, through the unique lens of the insomniac, Sophie. The delivery holds a reminiscent feeling, a longing for the support of your loved ones, rather than another soulless, endless, scroll through the social universe.
