Sofia Evangelina’s latest single, titled ‘Lone Wolf’, is a grandiose ballad with a scintillating hint of secret agent drama with inspiring lyrics and an ultra-crisp vocal performance.
Canadian native Sofia Evangelina is a singer and a songwriter who specializes in a brand of pristine modern pop that comes with neat production, snappy trap beats, a clean and balanced mix of electronic instruments with the occasional droplets of piano or waves of strings, and ‘Lone Wolf’ fits into this puzzle like a glove.
The artist’s latest release is a haunting pop ballad laced with melancholy that easily fits into the song’s theme of loneliness and wariness of betrayal, leading one on a lonely path to success. The composition, rich with vivid chords loaded with drama (yes, I’m talking about that augmented chord), is compellingly trippy, a far cry from the cliche progressions dotting the pop landscape yet daring enough to stand out and be remembered. The crunchy production job fits the genre beautifully and is masterfully restrained -a difficult trick to pull without over-producing the song-, and the mix is generally minimal in flavor.
With the inspiring and somewhat relatable lyrics, and the powerful, passionate delivery from Evangelina, ‘Lone Wolf’, written by Evangelina and European producer Jovan Jovanov, comes across as a mature pop offering that will have no trouble whatsoever seeing its way through to streaming playlists. Another banger from Sofia Evangelina.
