SOFY Releases New Song “socks”
Back in January, London-based singer-songwriter SOFY released a new EP “Bored in Colour (Pt. 2)”.
The EP is a sequel to the 2022 EP “Bored in Colour (Pt. 1)”.
Following the resounding success of th EP, she released a new song “socks” on July 13, 2023.
The track was written by Sophie Howes, Amie Pendarves, and Robb Whiteman. Produced by Gold Spectacles.
The accompanying music video was directed by Roisino.
SOFY said of the song, “'socks' is a full blown indie love song. It’s about falling when you least expect it, and not realising that something was missing from your life until it appears and suddenly everything you see and do feels different - 'love songs used to make me laugh, 'til I met you.'”- She continued, “I got the idea for it when, a couple of months after meeting someone, I noticed I’d been wearing his socks to bed for a week. I then realised I was completely head over heels in love with him and that there was probably a song in there somewhere - about how love somehow hits you slowly and all at once at the same time. I wanted the production to feel cinematic and euphoric to match that feeling, with big guitar riffs and drums and atmospheric, dreamy synths.”

She shared on social media, “my very first proper simpy indie love song, it’s about how love hits you slowly and then all at once , and how it makes every little stupid thing feel like magic. Me and Gold Spectacles wrote this in April 2022 and finished it off a couple months ago and we always knew it was a special one. Slide 2 is pure delirium and joy at 1am in the studio in May when we finally finished it off. And yes slide 4 is the actual socks that inspired the song I should prolly make this an NFT or something lol. anyway, I really love this one and I hope you do. The first single of the new era is HERE go run it up !!!!”
