Born Sophia Fredskilde Othman-Anderson on October 5, 1998, in Copenhagen, Denmark, the singer, songwriter, and actress is better known by her stage name Sophia Fredskild. Born to a Danish mother and Malaysian father in Copenhagen, her family relocated to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia when she was young. Interested in music, she decided that she wanted to be a singer at the age of 10. While attending school, she entered talent contests, sang in choir, and performed in theater and musical productions. By the age of 13, she had already started writing songs and, when she graduated from high school in 2015, she pursued a career in music. Sophia Fredskild spent the first year performing at any musical function she could, focusing on performing cover versions and discovering her own voice. Towards the end of 2016, she met Malaysian DJ and producer Bo Amir Iqram (stage name: Cuurley), who she began to collaborate with. The duo took her music in an electronic direction and they released the English language single “Go”(2017), which was followed by “More Than You See” (2018), a collaboration with Russian DJ/producer Alexy Dorokhov (a.k.a. Dorox). Influenced by her collaborators, Sophia Fredskild’s solo singles – including Malay-language tracks “Menanti Cinta” (2018) and “Cinta Selamanya” (2019) and their English-language counterparts “Waiting for Love” and “Forever Mine” – continued in an electronic direction. She posted videos of her singles on social media and garnered over one million views for each. She released a series of singles in 2021 – “Shine a Light,” “Heartbreaks Not Gonna Break Me,” “Back to Paradise,” and “Future So Bright” – and continued to blend her own emotional songwriting with electronica and EDM (electronic dance music). In May 2022, she issued the single “In Another Lifetime,” which earned over a million streams and views within the first month of release.
