Despite the unexpected title, 27 year old singer-songwriter Sophia Allison, more commonly known as Soccer Mommy, crafts heartfelt indie rock music. Born in Zürich, Switzerland and raised in Nashville, Tennessee, Allison has a diverse music background, focusing on lofi pop and indie rock styles. She has 755.3K monthly listeners on Spotify, and has released four studio albums along with several singles, with her latest album, Evergreen including notable hits, Abigail and Driver.
While I typically don’t listen to much indie music, I was introduced to Soccer Mommy through her single Rom Com 2021, featuring Kero Kero Bonito. With a fun beat and light-hearted feel, the song is a perfect pick-me-up and is one of my favorites to listen to when driving. Some of my other notable favorites include Driver and M, which have a calmer vibe, more suitable for studying and relaxing. Overall, I recommend Soccer Mommy to anyone looking to expand their music taste, due to her evocative style, including heartfelt ballads and acoustic hits.
