Soccer Mommy - Soccer Mommy: Her Greatest Hits (2019)

Soccer Mommy is the home-recorded solo project of singer/songwriter Sophie Allison. The Nashville native started uploading her introspective guitar pop songs to music-sharing site Bandcamp as a high-school student in the mid-2010s. Combining updated versions of some of the Bandcamp material and newer unreleased songs, Soccer Mommy's Collection arrived on Fat Possum in the summer of 2017 while the songwriter was enrolled at New York University. Produced and mixed by Allison, it was recorded by Jacob Corenflos and followed by a tour supporting acts such as the Drums and Jay Som. The following year Allison returned with the full-length debut record Clean, which was produced by Gabe Wax (Deerhunter, the War on Drugs). Later that year she released a cover of Bruce Springsteen's "I'm on Fire." ~ Marcy Donelson
