“Its dreamlike elements make for a song that can be blasted in any situation, whether it’s on an eight-hour road trip, a night under neon lights or on a mid-morning sunny day.” Atwood Magazine (USA)

Boorloo/Perth-based indie-rock band Sophian have returned with their latest hypnotic single ‘Dance With Me’ – produced by Dave Parkin at Blackbird Studios (Spacey Jane, Sly Withers, Old Mervs).
‘Dance With Me’ enchants with frontman Sophian Manik’s captivating vocals, gliding effortlessly across mesmerising funk-inspired instrumentation. The laid-back rhythmic cadences meld within introspective lyricism, crafting vivid images of wanderlust, that evoke an escapade within the rich sonic dreamscape.
Frontman Sophian Manik talks about the inspiration behind ‘Dance With Me’: “When I started to write this song, I had just come out of deep conversations with two people I really love, about their feelings of their own self-worth and how they were struggling to see that. I wanted them to know how amazing and special they are and how they just needed a little push to know this.”
Accompanying the release is the captivating music video, directed/edited by Sarah Haleem and filmed at Feld & Co in Boorloo/Perth. Yellow subtitles add a vibrant contrast to cool blue and purple tones that lead the visual palette, as the band’s energetic and magnetic energy takes centre stage. Wide shots of a hazy spotlight and full band performance scenes create a dynamic showcase, as the video is bathed in a kaleidoscope of colours.
In the lead-up to the single, the band are set to perform at Nannup Music Festival, followed by their first East Coast Tour. They will also be joining the lineup for BOOTY BLOCK PARTY, featuring Bootleg Rascal alongside Danté Knows, Chandler Jewels and King Ibis. Sophian have recently supported COTERIE on their regional tour and have previously performed with South Summit, DICE and Mitch Santiago. They have also sold out their last three hometown shows and have toured regionally in WA.
‘Dance With Me’ is available worldwide now

My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
