King Sophia

King Sophia is a multidisciplinary storyteller and world-builder. Known for their genre-bending work combining cello, voice, and electronics, King’s poetic live composing, sampling, and arranging skills center strategic resistance and radical joy. In addition to their solo projects, King takes alternating combinations of performer, arranger, and composer roles in various Detroit-based ensembles such as Autophysiopsychic Millenium, White Flowers, Sovereign Beat Unit, Ataraxia, and Banjo Ragtime Revival. They also arrange for and lead The King’s Trio in their ongoing lecture and performance series, Listening B(l)ack, which showcases historically under-discussed composers and compositions. Each new creation is grounded in their identities of Black Indigenous Queerness and a desire to preserve, showcase, and build upon non-hegemonic music history.
