Sofia Watt ‘I WANT TO BE JUST LIKE ADELE!'

The teen charity crusader is ready to shine on The Voice stage!

- 

Sofia Watt is no stranger to performing in front of crowds with her band, but the WA teenager is now stepping into the spotlight alone as she takes on the biggest performance of her life – her audition for The Voice!

Sunday night’s performance will be the 16-year-old’s first time on stage without her band Sonatay. And while Sofia admits she’s never been more nervous in her life, she’s not afraid of the challenge.

“I decided to audition solo because I wanted to prove to myself that I could do it,” Sofia tells Woman’s Day.

“I wanted to show even coming from a small town, you can do anything.”

She may be from the quiet but charming coastal town of Dunsborough, but Sofia’s voice has already made a huge impact on her community. Devastated by the destruction of the bushfires in 2019, at just 14, Sofia rallied local bands and organised a charity concert to raise much needed funds.

“I believe you should always be supporting your community and people in need,” shares Sofia, who sang crowd favourites by Missy Higgins and The White Stripes to lift spirits.
