Sophie & the Summer: A magical singer-songwriter evening in Hamburg!

An exciting musical event is just around the corner: On February 15, 2026, the talented artists of Sophie & the summer stand on stage in a unique constellation. The event takes place at the popular Gaussstraße school in Ottensen and promises an evening full of multilingual, relaxed pop chansons. Under the direction of Stefanie Richter, the ensemble expresses their passion for music in a special format that both touches the soul and invites you to dance.

Sophie & the Summer, a solo project by Stefanie Richter, is dedicated to composing and adapting female favorite songs. The music is presented in a decidedly fresh and multilingual way, with voice and instruments cleverly combined with a looper. The ensemble uses various effects pedals, making their songs truly catchy. The instrumentation includes an electric cello, piano, ukulele, synthesizer and even glockenspiel, making the performance varied and lively.

A look behind the scenes

Stefanie Richter, who comes from Munich, studied in Weimar and Hamburg and has therefore integrated deeply into the local music scene. Their involvement ranges from stage shows and dance productions to film, DVD and CD productions. She has already collaborated with well-known artists such as Sylvan, The Lets and Pony Royale. She is currently not only part of Sophie & der Sommer, but also active with the Beat Sisters. Her versatility is also reflected in the projects she is involved in: not only does she play the cello, but she also supports bands like Call Me Fox as a keyboardist and has found her place in big bands like Skyliner and Bertha Blau as an electric/double bassist.

Another exciting music maker from Hamburg is Marvin Brooks, a talented singer-songwriter who inspires with his unique style of soul, pop and RnB. With African and Caribbean sounds, he brings a breath of fresh air to the music scene and has already appeared on stage as a support act for stars such as J Cole and Ellie Goulding. His versatility is also underlined by performances in international cities such as Hong Kong and Monaco, where he played with Wyclef Jean. The local musical landscape is kept alive by artists who are bursting with energy and creativity.

With this wealth of talent and the upcoming performance of Sophie & der Sommer in Hamburg, it is clear that the city continues to be a hotspot for creative musicians. The event on February 15th not only offers the opportunity to experience first-class music, but also to honor the diversity and commitment of the artists who enrich our cultural life.

So be there when it means: musical relaxation and top-class entertainment in Hamburg!
