Hello Kidz of the Freeway!!!



Actress and Singer Songwriter from France, I now live in Avalon. I have been experimenting for a few years with my solo performances a new approach of entertaining my audience: a theatrical musical performance!



Also known as +The Enchanted Child of Rock+, I like to stand between evil and purity. I perform with an electric bass guitar/guitar and write, interpret songs of truth, heart and soul.



.

I returned from the tremendous trip in the U.S.A. where I performed for Sky Saxon's Memorial ( THE SEEDS) at The Echoplex in Los Angeles in July 09, amongst iconic rock n' roll musicians from the 60s such as Electric Prunes, Strawberry Alarm Clock and others like Mike Randle from Baby Lemonade who toured with Love and Arthur Lee in the millenium, Atomic alias Tommy Train who performed on stage with Sky for many many years, Billy Corgan from The Smashing Pumkins, and of course with the original members of The Seeds: Jan Savage and Daryl Hooper. Other dates followed the strange event and more of the L.A. scene could catch a glimpse of me at the Downtown LA Hotel and the famous Viper Room on Sunset Boulevard.



"Lorelei's Wish" is my latest creation and was recorded in Avalon at home. The song is a long relaxation journey that will make you dive into deep hypnosis. Free chords, Russian bells and a Brazilian harp are accompanying this ode to freedom.

Everyone is beautiful: a Sofizel classic with her primitive screams and soulful vocals stripped on her raw distorted bass!

"Life is The Strangest Gift" was recorded with one of my musician friend I admire so much for his amazingly romantic and delicate touch: David Hurn . His music and words are like the scent of lilies left to dry on the page of an old book found by chance in an attic.

"List of Lust and Lost" was part of an experimental project I had, inviting musician friends over at mine and writing and recording a song in one night. This one see the witty and naughty participation of Tom Mayne from the band David Cronenberg's Wife. Check out their "My best friend is going out with a girl I like"!!!



Some of these songs will feature on my debut album which I am planning to record in the end of the summer. I would love to work with interesting people and of course I would be happy to hear from record labels, sound producers, etc. For this you can contact me directly at sofizel@yahoo.co.uk.

I haven't been so dedicated to music lately because I published a fiction book in French. You can read a few chapters HERE It's called ET CE JOUR_LÀ ENCORE, LE SOLEIL BRILLAIT. I translated it into English in February and it will hopefully be available to English readers in 2011.



Meanwhile,PSYCAMORE FRUIT is a recent musical project combining my vocals / lyrics and Zilba's genius library of sounds!!! Get your seatbelts fastened!!! There are four demos you can listen to on that page!



.

I played solo performances in many venues of the U.K. Capital, in France and also in California- U.S.A., such as the prestigious Tate Britain, The London Hard Rock Café, The Notting Hill Arts Club for Alan Mc Gee's Death Disco, L.S.E, The Echoplex, Viper Room, the Hackney Empire Theatre, The 12 Bar Club's Blang, The Buffalo Bar's Club Bohemia, The Foundry, The Boogaloo, Nambucca, Gossips, Cherry Jam, and many art venues.



As Jungle Records opened its studio for legendary Sky Sunlight Saxon from the extraordinary 60s Californian psychedelic garage band called Sky Sunlight Saxon and The Seeds in November 2006 we recorded 2 tremendous songs "Who's next to go?, "Christmas for the Animals" under the name of The Europe Seeds. My vocals feature on both of these tracks.



I performed an exclusive show for a photographic exhibition by Pep Karsten in Nice called "From Death to Life", in the summer 2005. You can find some of the live on La Peau Douce (SofiZel & Pep Karsten)



I belonged or participated to a few bands projects over the last few years: Cooty Shot in 2002 and The Gypsies in the begining of 2005 with whom I played some decent shows at The Barfly, 93 Feet East and The Bull and Gate.
