Sophie Milman

Sophie Milman, a talented jazz vocalist born on January first, nineteen eighty-three in Russia, has captivated audiences with her rich voice and emotive performances. Emigrating to Canada via Israel in the early 1990s, she immersed herself in the world of jazz, which would later define her musical career.

Milman's self-titled debut album, released on October twelfth, two thousand four, marked the beginning of her professional journey in music. The album was well-received in Canada and later in the United States in two thousand six. Her academic pursuits culminated in a Bachelor of Commerce degree from the University of Toronto in two thousand eleven, showcasing her diverse talents beyond music.

Throughout her career, Milman has collaborated with her then-husband, Casey Chisick, a lawyer and musician, who served as the executive producer for several of her albums, including 'Make Someone Happy' in two thousand seven and 'Take Love Easy' in two thousand nine. Their partnership extended to her concert DVD, 'Live in Montreal,' released in two thousand eight. However, the couple separated in two thousand twenty-four.

Milman's artistry has not gone unnoticed; she won the Juno Award for Vocal Jazz Album of the Year in two thousand eight for 'Make Someone Happy' and received a Grammy Award nomination in two thousand eighteen for her contribution to 'Yiddish Glory.' Additionally, her recording of 'So Long, You Fool' has been featured in commercials for Air Wick's Winter Collection candles, further solidifying her presence in the music industry.
