Sophia was born on July 2008, cherished by Daniele and Regi, soon charming Vinicius and Divo.
And now we want to enchant you with the perfect Beauty of Sophia.
Lyrics with a profound metaphysic meaning influenced by various classics such as Pink Floyd, Whitesnake and Scorpions, the band combines the hard rock sound with lyrical vocals and singular production. Among the compositions there are also blues and ballads inspired in philosophical and classical themes but with an unusual view.
The band has a long journey through music.
Regi and Vinicius have been playing together since teenagers, passing by different band formations. They have always been influenced by the heavy metal, hard rock and progressive classics. They have studied and explored the sounds of Metallica, Pink Floyd, Genesis, Frank Zappa and many others. Both have worked together on experiments connected to fractality on music and on poetry.
Regi has also made some experiments on electronic music producing the CD Alchemical Love in 2007. Vinicius experience with electronic was playing the drums and percussion with DJ Morita in the Live Deluxe.
Danieles studies were on opera singing, she is a dramatic mezzo-soprano. Although she has also had a good contact with hard rock and heavy metal her first influences were the Brazilian 80s rock, MPB composers such as Tom Jobim, Caimmy, Toquinho and the movements Bossa Nova and Clube da Esquina.
Putting together their philosophies and musical knowledge brought about the Sophia project, which is a mix of their history. The lyrics are a discussion about deep metaphysical themes, and the sound is a unique bland of styles.
Classics such as Led Zeppelin, Genesis, Pink Floyd, Frank Zappa, among others.
Hard Rock with opera vocals, and some blues.
Lyrics based on Socrates and Methaphisics, and on mitological and classical literature.
