“Incoming EP ‘Talk Talk’ is their boldest step yet, matching astute songwriting to daring sonic flourishes, recalling everyone from Sharon van Etten to LCD Soundsystem in the process.”
– CLASH
“Sohn’s clear vocal drives deceptively gentle synth-backed ditties into surges of heavier guitars reminiscent of early Yeah Yeah Yeahs.”
–  Line Of Best Fit
“Sohn’s quiet-storm vox against cataclysmic synthesizers creates a soundscape that is both emotionally raw and dynamically energizing, a perfect blend of introspection and catharsis.”
– The Deli NYC
“Miss Grit is a thrilling new project that takes its cues from a bevy of indie heavy-hitters and turns it all into something all the more exciting. On her new single ‘Talk Talk,’ which also happens to be the title track of her upcoming debut EP, Sohn keys into both a sound and state of mind that will make her one to watch in the new year.”
– The 405

Today, NYC-based guitarist and indie rock outfit Miss Grit shares her new single “The Bride.” This is the second single off her forthcoming debut EP, Talk Talk, due out next week. Yesterday, Clash premiered the track, praising, “A jagged, sparse, but eerily infectious nugget, it’s shot through with conviction.” “The Bride” is out now on DSPs, and is currently being featured on Spotify’s coveted All New Indie playlist.
Talk Talk began in an empty dorm. It was written over the course of a lonely January by Miss Grit front woman, Margaret Sohn. After her demos were recorded, Sohn approached her former bandmate, Charles Mueller, about working on this EP with her. Mueller took on the roll of co-producer, engineer, and mixer for this EP. The rest of the year involved ironing out and developing the demos, Zoltán Sindhu (bass) and Greg Tock (drums) at Virtue and Vice, a studio where Sohn previously worked as an intern, and a two-month hiatus while Sohn studied in Shanghai. She finally finished recording everything else for the EP in Mueller’s home studio with his cat Anton.
Talk Talk isn’t necessarily a breakup album, but an album about Sohn being lost when it comes to relationships and love. It takes on social anxiety and the unrealistic views of love that society and movies ingrain into girls’ minds. On a more personal note, it’s also about Margaret’s struggle with “all or nothing” emotions when it comes to relationships, and the desire to dry up those feelings into something less extreme and intense. With inspirations from LCD Soundsystem’s satisfying synths and St. Vincent’s brutal guitars, Miss Grit has come up with an innocently deceiving sound that is “Talk Talk.”

BIO
Miss Grit was born in an NYU dorm room in January 2018. While her friends were celebrating winter break with their families, frontwoman, Margaret Sohn, was behind locked doors, screaming into a mic through her guitar pedal board and out her amplifier.
Back in her home state of Michigan, Margaret has recorded cello accompaniment for her mentor, Flint Eastwood, and worked as an assistant on My Brightest Diamond’s upcoming album. When she isn’t taking electrical engineering and computer science classes at NYU, Sohn, builds guitar pedals, designs voice-activated light displays, does post-production for film, and works as a studio technician in New York. Sohn, who has played guitar for fifteen years, has been featured in several bands, including the band in which she met her soon to be mixer/engineer/co-producer/friend Charles Mueller, Lakewhales. Sohn’s biggest inspirations are her favorite artists, St. Vincent and Nels Cline.
