New Album

Sonya's newest release, "This Storm," is in stores today! This is the first release since the critically-acclaimed Words Came Back To Me (2006) and showcases Sonya's evolution into a sophisticated musician and songwriter with something meaningful to say about the human condition. Produced by Grammy Award-winner Malcolm Burn (Peter Gabriel, Emmylou Harris), This Storm is an immediate and visceral album packed with musical surprises, from the edgy, impassioned rock of "Fire" to the country-indie twang of "Running" to the drifting, textured alt-pop of "This Storm" and "Who Knows After All." Not that fans of Words will be out of luck, either: tracks like "Walk Away" and "Robin In The Snow" are quintessential acoustic Kitchell. Please support Sonya and order your copy today!

Amazon (with an exclusive Amazon MP3 track)
Barnes & Noble (with exclusive B&N songs)
iTunes (with an exclusive bonus track and digital booklet)
