Soccer Mommy is Sophia Regina Allison, born in Zurich in 1997 and based in Nashville, who got her start posting demos to Bandcamp under a name borrowed from her Twitter handle. What she makes is confessional indie rock that crosses the fuzz and ache of 1990s alternative rock with the bright hooks of turn-of-the-millennium mainstream pop. Writers dubbed it "bubblegrunge", and her influences run from Avril Lavigne and Taylor Swift to Slowdive and the Cure.
Clean, her 2018 album for Fat Possum, brought "Cool", a crisp, catchy shrug of a guitar song. Color Theory in 2020 turned hazier and moodier, with "circle the drain" and "lucy" drifting under shimmering, slightly warped guitars. Sometimes, Forever in 2022 gave her "Shotgun", a sticky, grinding hook of a song, and Evergreen followed in 2024 with "Driver". Through all of it her songs stay intensely personal, the kind of writing that feels like reading someone's diary over a loud amp.
She has toured with a who's who of indie and beyond, including Phoebe Bridgers, Mitski, Paramore, Liz Phair, Vampire Weekend and Kacey Musgraves, and she has become one of the most prominent indie rock songwriters of the 2020s.
