During this time, tragedy struck and she lost her husband, leaving her alone with her three-year-old.īut her association with the band Sparklehorse as a multi-instrumentalist led to a reunion with drummer Scott Minor. Since that album, Michalitsianos moved to Australia with her husband, had a daughter, and worked on new music that she ultimately decided to self-release. From it came the track Enter One, which has been used on numerous high-profile TV shows and has a silly number of views on YouTube. If the name Sol Seppy sounds familiar, it's because Michalitsianos had one groundbreaking album in 2006, The Bells of 1 2, which for those that heard it became one of the most important albums of the 00s. The album takes its time yet feels urgent, like you need this music, this moment. Originally released as a private-press CD for her fans, I.A.A.Y.A, or I Am As You Are, is sublime, intimate, weightless, and comforting. What Sophie Michalitsianos has created, using barely more than her voice, piano, and cello, is magical, defying labels.
