RISING : SOCCER MOMMY

Nashville’s lovelorn grunge-pop queen is coming. She’s a five-foot-four engine, head in the clouds, waiting to move.

Listening to Soccer Mommy can feel like a climbing into a treehouse built from sorrow. Reach the top and feel the sweet Tennessee breeze. Know you’re not alone because Soccer Mommy is right there. Then there’s the surge of her indie crescendos, and the fuzzy glide of her biggest alt rock moments. Ever since her early home recordings as a teen, Soccer Mommy’s Sophie Allison has known how to balance her plainspoken intensity with undeniable hooks.

Allison’s latest, Evergreen, leans into a new acoustic intimacy and pastoral expanse. It’s wide-open and right up close. Richly melodic at every turn. Always ready with a sullen rock sucker-punch. She’s heading to RISING, set to flood the place with feeling under the night-blue ceiling.
