The third single from her upcoming album, Sophie Breton tackles doubt and hopelessness with her sweetly melancholic Is Love Enough
After deciding to stop waiting for opportunities to come to her, Sophie Breton decided to make her own when she began her music journey back in 2019.
From fan to artist, Sophie carries her love of music and the industry into her own blossoming career.
With a deep reverence for the craft and the voice to match, she stakes her claim with the soulfully dramatic Is Love Enough.
Inspired by a myriad of conversations, Sophie felt inclined to touch on the state of love in today’s ever-changing world.
Stemming from deep-seated doubts about whether or not love is possible in our current climate, Is Love Enough takes a vulnerable question and expands upon it, never once claiming to have the answer.
Hauntingly smooth, Breton’s voice is warm and inviting. Percussive acoustic guitar that erupts with a distorted riff that tightly follows Sophie’s chorus melody creates drama and tension.
With a tone similar to Gigi Perez, Breton is captivating and beguiling. Lyrically, she keeps things simple.
This choice allows for the language barrier to become irrelevant, with Sophie’s second-person statements effortlessly affective.
Is Love Enough is applicable to a mountain of situations. Whether a relationship or the political climate or the every day experiences of humanity, Sophie taps into an anthemic sentiment that is echoed by millions.
With her honeyed, commanding voice and dynamic instrumental play, Sophie conjures emotion effortlessly.
With a loosely definable genre, Breton taps into soul, indie and pop rock with Is Love Enough.
This leaves her plenty of room to explore and expand upon the foundations she’s so dutifully laid for herself. I
t would be a shame to limit such a compelling voice and interesting songwriter, especially one at the mere beginnings of her career.
An album set for release this year and a single with such strength, it seems as though 2024 may very well be a defining year for Sophie Breton.
Is Love Enough leaves you with both a melody and a feeling stuck in your head, a sure sign that Breton is onto something special.
