As a singer-writer, Brooklyn based Sonia Montez echoes her adoration of humanity and myriad of experiences. She is easily influenced by the likes of Ella Fitzgerald and The Beatles, but does not shy away from comparisons to her more contemporary counterparts. Her knack for phrasing and harmonization is captivating.

Sonia began her musical career at age 6, joining El Coro de Ninos de San Juan, the world renowned children’s choir. Studying voice and violin, she eventually tired of rote classical training and set out to teach herself the guitar. Following her love of jazz, pop, alternative rock, and folk, she emerged as a songwriting force, dazzling audiences and critics.

At the age of fourteen, Sonia began playing the New York City open mic scene with veterans Kimya Dawson and Regina Spektor. She went on to share the stage with legendary songwriter Chip Taylor, and has opened sold out shows for Matt Nathanson, Jessie Bailyn, Kaki King, and The Mountain Goats. Having released her debut EP 'Of Tears and Honey' on Radian Records, Sonia continually proves herself to be an artist to keep an eye on.
