Emerging from Nashville's ever-smoldering Americana singer-songwriter scene, Sophie Gault strikes again with a gritty yet soft new single in "Is There Anyone Out There."
With her signature vocal rasp and lyrical poignancy, Gault showcases her ear for chaos, and a knack for melodies. Her songwriting is filled with swagger that capture listeners and pulls them into the small, intimate world she creates within her music.
"Is There Anyone Out There" endears from the initial gentle acoustic guitar plucks, followed shortly by juxtaposing male and female vocal harmonies. Gault's wavering voice is striking yet breathy, and intertwines with warm low-end harmonies and crisp edges from songwriter Gurf Morlix throughout the tune. The storytelling is filled with vivid imagery that ties deeply into the feeling of loneliness, calling out in hopes of someone to come erase that universal feeling.
Her third full-length album, Unhinged -- which will greet listeners January 23rd, 2026 via Torrez Music Group -- paints vivid portraits and soulful stories that are deeply rooted in personal emotions, but feelings most everyone has experienced, such as this latest single. The record sounds like a late-night racetrack drive with punked up outlaw country that collides with backroom heartbreak that cements her spot as a compelling and unapologetic voice in the creative underground.
Gault has developed a reputation as an empowering artist who isn't afraid to leap forward into the unknown, taking risks and telling hard truths. Those truths can sting, and don't always wrap up nicely, but she creates unique and intimate stories that invite listeners to a deep connection, one that has them coming back, even if just for her incredible voice alone.
Sophie Gault can often be found playing beloved local venues in Nashville and beyond, and we look forward to seeing what's in store for this talented artist in 2026.
