The Sophs + Yesterday's Girl

FIRST 150 TICKETS FREE!

Degenerate posturing. The Sophs’ frontman Ethan Ramon knows what he’s singing is wrong — but that’s the point. “Sometimes it's important to write from the perspective of the worst part of yourself so that version of yourself can live through the music,” he said.

That brutal honesty, paired with their broad, genre-spanning sound, caught the attention of Rough Trade founders Geoff Travis and Jeannette Lee, who quickly signed on after hearing their demo reel. The Sophs — Ramon, Sam Yuh (keyboards), Austin Parker Jones (electric guitar), Seth Smades (acoustic guitar), Devin Russ (drums), and Cole Bobbitt (bass) — now arrive with their debut album GOLDSTAR (out soon).

At any moment, The Sophs can leap from pop-punk to funk to Delta blues to ZZ Top-inspired rock. Their songs are wild collisions of vaudeville, emo bluegrass, grunge, and flamenco-tinged folk, often shifting direction without warning. What ties it all together is Ramon’s versatile, chameleonic voice and the band’s explosive energy — equal parts chaotic, joyful, and unstoppable.
