"Her sullen verses give way to a breezy chorus in which the Parisian native formerly known as Amelie Rousseaux lets her anger drift away with a purifying, cathartically carefree melody. It’s a provocative introduction to a fascinating singer who relocated from France to Los Angeles two years ago.”

“The debut album… cuts deep with its tender-hearted, flowy garage-pop.”
“Sofia Bolt is the recording project of Paris-born, L.A.-based guitarist/vocalist/songwriter Amelie Rousseaux. Waves, her debut, was recorded at Earth, Wind & Fire’s Los Angeles studio. It features an arrangement by the legendary Van Dyke Parks, as well as a backing band of Emily Elhaj (Angel Olsen), Marian Lipino (La Luz), Bryant Fox (Miya Folick), and Itai Shapira (Rhye).”
“The warm-toned and lyrically honest songs on her debut album, Waves, reflect tidal changes: breaking up with her girlfriend and leaving Paris for surf life in Los Angeles."
