At first glance, one might wonder if she escaped from someone's knick-knack box or the page of a storybook filled with enchanted tales and unpredictable endings. Upon encounter, one may find the magnifying glass obsolete and that she does not fit well into confined spaces. Nobody knows for sure, but it has been speculated that Kung Fu Sophie's elusive roots were once grounded in the biggest little valley of a distant and dangerously explosive planet. It is believed that Kung Fu Sophie escaped the hostile, arid environment via a quickly constructed, self-made ark suitable for space travel. Fortunately she was able to rescue a guitar, a piano, and her voice. After enduring a long and arduous journey through uncharted territory, Kung Fu Sophie unexpectedly landed on Planet Earth. Since arriving she's played around the world from the Belly Up in San Diego to The Living Room in New York City; London to Bristol; and Australia. Somewhat similar to the earthly likes of Regina Spektor, Inara George, Laurie Anderson, Tori Amos, and Rickie Lee Jones.
