Interviews
Sophia Treadway – Kiss N’ Tell
By: Alejandra Gil M.
Q) How would you describe your sound?
A) My sound is definitely pop with a mix of R&B and also some Reggaeton.
Q) Who are some of your musical influences?
A) Justin Bieber, JLO, Dua Lipa, Selena Gomez
Q) Your new single “Kiss N’ Tell” out now. Talk about the story behind it.
A) Of course! At the time I wrote it, I was thinking about a song concept and a conversation came up between Autumn [Rowe] and I. I was talking to her about all the guys I was crushing on and how I don’t want or have time right now for anything serious, but I want to be young and have fun – that’s the whole idea behind it.
Q) What was your song writing process like for this single? Do you need music before you can create lyrics?
A) That’s my preferred way to go although I have written songs without a track. Normally, I’m in the studio and will help create the skeleton of the track with my producer and then write from there and continue to build onto the track.
Q) The song was produced by 2022 Grammy-Award Winner (Best Album, Jon Batiste) Autumn Rowe. What attracted you to work with her?
A) Autumn has been developing me for a while now. Co-writing with her is so enjoyable, and she really gets me. We both bring out the best in each other when it comes to writing a single.
Q) The sound for “Kiss N’ Tell” is a nod to the late 90s/early 2000s nostalgic vibes. What do you hope people take away from it?
A) That you can create new sound – not just stick to what you’re comfortable with – and really create something different that’s still you. Lyrically, the message would be to stay true to you, stay young, and have fun, not to overthink about boys.
Q) Your previous singles include “Close to Me,” “I’m Good,” “Not That into You,” “Beside Me” and “Can’t Stop Thinking About You” and all of them are on Spotify where you have over 200,000 monthly listeners. What has it meant to you to be getting more attention and recognition for your music?
A) It means the world to me. I check it all the time and seeing those big numbers makes me feel so much love. I truly am grateful for all my supporters and the love of my music.
Q) Is there a particular song of yours that holds a special place in your heart and what makes it so significant for you?
A) My favorite song would probably have to be “Close to Me.” I really took charge in creating that and it’s so fun. It’s truly my vibe and that whole idea came to me so quickly listening to the skeleton, and I really brought it to life.
Q) Who would you most like to collaborate with on a song in the future?
A) I would absolutely freak out if I collaborated with Justin Bieber one day.
Q) What album/band are you currently listening to and why do you dig them?
A) Right now, I’ve been listening to a lot of Jack Harlow. I really love his story, and his new album is so unique and incredible. I love what he’s done.
Q) You are a part of social media. Why is that such an important way for you to connect with your fans?
A) Social Media allows me to share my day-to-day with supporters and also allows me to communicate and share not only my sound but personality as well.
Q) What would you like to say to fans and supporters of you and your music?
A) To keep staying tuned for more music, to listen to “Kiss N Tell” and to follow me on my socials so they can keep up with me.
