Alt-pop songsmiths, Sophie and the Giants are back with the brand new single ‘Break the Silence’.

‘Break The Silence’ finds the band in anthemic mode, with a simple piano riff during the verse exploding into a propulsive drum-and-synth driven epic for the chorus, with Sophie’s emotive vocals shining through at the heart of the song.

“Lyrically the track is a call to arms”, as Sophie explains:

“Break the silence is about using your voice as your most powerful tool, even if it’s scary. When you’re someone who’s never felt like you’ve had a voice, listen and empower yourself to let go of that fear. It could make the biggest difference and it might help us all learn to be honest without fearing rejection or judgment. It’s about shouting out and making yourself heard.”

Sophie and the Giants hail from Sheffield and in their short existence have sold out their very first European tour and racked up the better part of 10 million streams from their debut EP, ‘Adolescence’. They’ve also picked up fans at Radio with support from, BBC Introducing, Radio 1 & Radio X.

Live they’ve supported Tom Grennan, Barns Courtney and a multitude of others whilst also being invited to play Radio 1’s Big Weekend, Glastonbury and Reading/Leeds Festivals this year. In October they’ll be heading out on a headline tour of the UK.
