A New Dawn in R&B: Sofia Rubina’s SOUL MORNING

“…Watching Sofia Rubina's performance, you can immediately tell that she is a sunny singer - she charms the audience from the first notes with her extremely positive and cheerful personality…The music flows and lives in her voice…”

—Anne Erm, Jazzkaar Festival, Estonia

With Soul Morning, Estonian soul-jazz vocalist Sofia Rubina delivers a track that feels like velvet from the very first note. Steeped in classic R&B groove, the song is slinky and inviting—an effortless blend of sophistication and warmth that works just as well for a sunlit morning as it does for a candlelit night. From the clipped organ keys that pulse like a heartbeat to Rubina’s silky vocals, the song draws you in with a dreamy intimacy that’s impossible to resist.

Rubina’s performance is both stylish and deeply heartfelt, channeling the lineage of icons like Ella Fitzgerald and Dee Dee Bridgewater while offering her own contemporary spin. As the title suggests, Soul Morning is more than a song—it’s a mood, a mantra, and an invitation to slow down and savor the moment and enjoy the sunrise.

Born in Tartu, Estonia, Sofia Rubina has built an international career that bridges jazz, soul, and beyond. A Berklee-trained artist, she has performed everywhere from New York’s legendary Blue Note to stages across Europe and Asia, collaborating with world-class talents like Joe Lovano, Danilo Perez, and Seal. With six albums to her name, Rubina continues to expand her artistry, blending genres with optimism, color, and style. Whether fronting a big band, working with DJs, or delivering an intimate ballad, Sofia’s music radiates joy and connection—always with the promise of something good for the soul.
