Music of the Day: Sophie Powers - Nosebleed

Toronto born and raised, Sophie Powers just wants to make you feel. Call her music whatever you want – hyper-punk or alt-pop or glitch-rock or any other manner of contrived portmanteau – but don’t forget that crucial fact: The 18-year-old star is on a mission to reinject genuine emotion into a pop landscape that’s more alienated than ever. “I don’t care if it’s extremely sad or extremely angry – I just want to make music that makes people feel validated and powerful” she says.
