My Elusive Heart

'My Elusive Heart' is the rock opera debut album of independent recording artist Sofie Jude. Singer/songwriter and executive producer, born and raised in Merseyside, North West UK! The moment her audiences hear Sofie's powerful, duel-range voice, they are captivated and amazed. Her natural falsetto ability that is usually restricted to the male voice, combines classical vocal techniques with the contemporary style, which is truly unique. In her early years Sofie was tutored in classical and theatrical music. She has since nurtured and developed her own signature voice, working with a broad base of local acts and projects. After a long and encompassing creative journey, Sofie formed a unique vision of an album and the start of her solo career. It was a vision that would define her as a contending recording artist on the international market. Sofie Jude and her co collaborator Barry Dallman, Composer and joint producer, form the unlikely partnership of a jazz musician and a classical theatrical singer. By channeling contrasting musical outlooks, their collaborative dynamic has forged highly crafted melodies and harmonies, taking the best from a variety of influences; including rock, alternative and blues, and honing them into a stand-alone genre-defying album. Sofie's lyrical ability blends with the distinct movie like musical score, painting a poignant illustration of life and the personal challenges involved. It is a ballsy mix of cynical humour, deep reflection and emotional highs and lows. By her own admission she leave no stone unturned. Gathering the best sessions musicians Liverpool had to offer, the album was recorded at the prestigious Parr Street Studio in Liverpool. The sophistication and quality shines throughout the project. At an epic 50 minutes 'My Elusive Heart' is soulful and mesmerising. By focusing on the pure sound of real instrumentation, Sofie Jude's startling immense voice is highlighted throughout, making it an unforgettable album.
