Guest's Bio:  

Sophia Eris is a renaissance woman currently residing in Minneapolis, MN. She graduated with a Music Business degree from IPR in 2009 and immediately jumped into artist promotion as an employee at Tinderbox Music for 3 years while working on her own artistic journey. Since 2012 she's grown from a respected solo artist to an international touring DJ with Atlantic recording artist Lizzo, to a morning show host at Go 95.3, the most forward-thinking hip-hop station in the country. She’s collaborated with Prince, appeared on the Power Rangers soundtrack, released a solo EP,  performed at major festivals like Glastonbury, Bonnaroo, and Lollapalooza, & also made her television DJing debut on Ellen, David Letterman, & Stephen Colbert.  When she’s not on the road Eris stays locked in the studio, currently working on 3 separate projects that will debut in 2021. She is currently in the process of building and funding a WOC-owned venue called Auntie's that will not only provide performance, but workshops and seminars for the youth to focus on career development within the arts.    

“The city’s next music star. Sophia Eris is the music-biz equivalent of a three-sport athlete: Radio Host, DJ, and MC.”  - Mpls St Paul Magazine
