One Shot Not : Sophie Hunger


Armed with an acoustic guitar and an indie folk sensibility, Sophie Hunger is a Swiss singer/songwriter from Zurich whose independently released studio album debut, Monday's Ghost (2008), was a critically acclaimed chart-topping success in her homeland. Born Emilie Jeanne-Sophie Welti Hunger on March 31, 1983, in Berne, Switzerland, she spent parts of her youth abroad, living in England and Germany. She began her recording career as a member of the band Fisher, where she billed herself as Emilie Welti. The band released one album, Fisher (2005), before she embarked on a solo career as a singer /songwriter, changing her performance name to Sophie Hunger. Her full-length solo album debut, Sketches on Sea (2006), was a home-recorded effort that steadily became an underground sensation. It helped, of course, that Hunger was an engaging live performer. Her renown as a live performer led to an appearance at the 2008 Montreux Jazz Festival, among other high-profile appearances. The positive word of mouth and glowing press coverage for Hunger was such that her studio album debut, Monday's Ghost, debuted at number one on the Swiss albums chart upon its release in October 2008 on the independent label Two Gentlemen. The album, sung in English as well as German, was licensed for international release by Universal Music in 2009, and Hunger toured Europe in support of the album's major-label re-release.

PJ Harvey to become 'Official War Songwriter'?

The Head Of Collections at the Imperial War Museum has said he will propose to the museum's management committee that they approach PJ Harvey about her becoming an official war correspondent songwriter, documenting conflicts involving the British army through verse and song.
The museum's Roger Tolson was responding to an interview Harvey gave to Radio 4 talking about her new album 'Let England Shake', which was inspired by two and half years of research into military conflicts.
Harvey said: "I started wondering where the officially appointed war songwriter was. You have got your war artists, like Steve McQueen, and your war photographers. I fantasised that I had been appointed this official songwriter and so I almost took on that challenge for myself".
In 2006, Steve McQueen (the British artist, not the legendary Hollywood actor, obviously) went to Iraq as part of the Imperial War Museum's official war artists' programme, producing the work 'Queen And Country' as a result.
Responding to the Radio 4 comments, Tolson told The Guardian: "We are certainly interested in working with PJ Harvey. It is something we can take forward as we have never commissioned anybody in that capacity. We have never sent a musician out to a conflict zone".
