There comes a time in a true originals career where they become more than the sum of their influences. Sophie Madeleine’s star is in such an ascendant, and we are witnessing the results of some maverick fusion.
Steeped in an inherited classicism (she had a music-lover for a father,) she absorbed the greats of the last century - from Cole Porter to Gershwin, Bacharach, Beatles and beyond.
