About this Event
Join us for a concert with Swedish folk singer, songwriter, and guitarist Sofia Talvik as she kicks off her annual Winter Concert Tour with a special performance at Embassy of Sweden, marking the start of her annual countdown to the holidays.
Sofia’s Winter concert features a mix of her original holiday songs, handpicked wintery covers, and some of her fan favorites — but you won’t hear any Jingle Bells. Instead, her songs reveal the quieter, more reflective side of Christmas: stories of longing, hope, and humanity.
Performed with delicate grace, Sofia’s concerts highlight her angelic voice, intricate acoustic guitar playing, and a subtle rhythm section made up of her own two feet, bells, and a stomp box. The result is an intimate and peaceful experience — a beautiful pause from the holiday rush and noise.
Take a moment to slow down this winter and let Sofia Talvik’s music bring warmth to your heart and stillness to your season.
Doors open at 6:30 pm. Show starts at 7:00 pm
(Complimentary refreshments are included with your ticket)
