Sophie Straat (28 July, 1994) is a Dutch singer and songwriter from Amsterdam, The Netherlands. Listeners familiar with the Dutch music tradition will instantly recognise her style: Sophie gives a modern take on the so-called 'levenslied' or 'smartlap' of typical Amsterdam 'volkszangers' like André Hazes, singing about the unstoppable urban process of gentrification - and how it changed the neighbourhood of her childhood: Amsterdam's once infamous (but now gentrified) De Pijp. Her début EP, ’t Is niet mijn schuld, was released in 2020.
