Sophie, the Grammy-nominated musician who died in a climbing accident in 2021, is set to release her self-titled final album on September 27 via Transgressive and Future Classic.
The artist, who mixed pop sensibilities with an experimental electronic edge, was working on “Sophie” with her brother Benny Long for years, and the album was close to completion prior to her death. Long, who is billed as co-producer on the project, helped finalize it alongside her closest associates.
The first single from the project, “Reason Why,” accompanies the announcement of “Sophie.” The track features BC Kingdom and Kim Petras, who worked with Sophie during her career and honored her during her Grammy acceptance speech in 2023.
