Sofi Tukker Tickets

SOFI TUKKER, made up of New York-based Sophie Hawley-Weld and Tucker Halpern, burst onto the scene in 2016 with their single “Drinkee” which was nominated for Best Dance Recording at the Grammy Awards in 2017.

Their debut album Treehouse was released on April 13, 2018. The album was nominated for a Grammy for Best Dance/Electronic Album.

Sophie was born in Frankfurt, Germany and grew up in Canada and Atlanta. She attended United World College of the Adriatic in Duino, Italy and Brown University where she studied Portuguese, which later inspire the bossa nova influence and Portuguese lyrics the duo love.

Tucker is from Brookline, Massachusetts. He starred as a forward on the Brown University basketball team. After his dreams of an NBA career were cut short by medical issues during the 2011-2012 season, a new passion blossomed: music.

At Brown, Sophie and Tucker met at an art gallery, while they both played as a separate act. As Sophie recalled:

I was playing acoustic bossa nova music in a trio and Tucker was the DJ that night. He came early and saw what we were doing and ended up remixing one of my songs on the spot…We have been working together ever since!

Since meeting in 2014, Sofi Tukker have been nominated for Grammys, toured sellout concerts around the globe, had multiple tracks certified Platinum, streamed over 400 shows online, and grown a unique and passionate fanbase, which they affectionately refer to as the Freak Fam.
