Dorsten is a Folk-Pop sibling band and we are here to share our strong and dynamic sound with the world. We hope you will immediately appreciate the authenticity that we share. Sophie’s vocal performance is simply out-of-this-world balanced perfectly with complex and beautiful instrumentation from Alex. With a trail of accolades and a growing international fanbase, we continue to craft music that resonates deeply with you the listener, all this leaving an indelible mark on the Folk/Americana landscape.

Influenced by the likes of Florence + The Machine, The Lumineers, and Kaleo, we have spent years honing our craft, captivating audiences at national touring acts and numerous music festivals. 

Dorsten = the vibe and nuance of Noah Kahan + the vocal power of Adele.

With a trail of accolades and growing fanbase from tours and music festivals; most recently Summerfest and Edmonton Folk Fest, Dorsten continues to craft music that resonates deeply with listeners worldwide. They were honored to be direct support for Mark Ambor that took them around the US and Europe. They then went back for a 17-city European tour for various artists, most notably Tom Walker in Paris. This Arizona based artist has opened for Beth Hart locally and most recently a 9-city tour in Canada. Dorsten has more local shows planned as well as another tour in EU and an album this Fall.

“An ethereal voice that just pierces through the fabric of reality... ...the lyrics are nothing short of genius! Very good word play and very descriptive lyrics that easily conveys Sophie's emotions, supported by Alex's amazing production and arrangement."

Sinusoidal Music, November 2022

Sophie has been a part of Alice Cooper's Solid Rock teen center for  several years by giving vocal lessons as well as performing at big events held and even backup vocals on Alice Cooper and Rock for Children's  album "Rock for Children."  Sophie performed back up vocals with Alice Cooper at a press release party at the teen center - what a blast! In 2023 'Dorsten' released an Alice Cooper cover 'I Never Cry' written by Alice Cooper and Dick Wagner' to honor them in the influence they've had on Sophie and Alex as artists and how much they do for the community. Dick Wagner was a huge part of our manager Warren Wyatt's life and thought it would be cool to do a cover of a song he and Alice Cooper wrote together. To have Alice Cooper quoted as saying "it's quite haunting and beautiful" was amazing!
