Sofia Isella – to play The National Stadium Dublin + announces new EP

21 year old music prodigy SOFIA ISELLA has announced the release of her new EP Something is a shell ., out independently April 17. This third EP marks the newest chapter in ISELLA’s canon of work, dropping after a banner year that took her from viral momentum to sold-out rooms and arena stages worldwide.

The announcement arrives alongside the release of “Numbers,” a new track that distils the tension at the centre of ISELLA’s work — control versus autonomy, intimacy versus extraction — pairing her unflinching vocal delivery with a stripped, percussive backbone that feels more like a reckoning than a hook. In this opening track on the EP, ISELLA takes on the dark underbelly of the Bible and sycophants who go to great lengths to defend it. The EP will also include the previously released tracks “Out in the Garden,” as well as “Above The Neck.”

Since 2024, ISELLA has steadily built an uncompromising catalog through releases like I Can Be Your Mother (2024) and I’m Camera (2025), which featured the haun[ng single “Muse”. Across her work, she has amassed over 150 million streams worldwide while carving out a space defined by bold textures, piercing lyricism, and a refusal to soften her work for comfort. Her reach continues to expand — from breakout tracks like “Hot Gum” and the subsequent viral “Doll People” to her latest singles, reflecting a diverse and growing global audience and the undeniable impact of her work. ISELLA’s music operates in a space of hyper-realism, challenging ideas of femininity and safety, and refusing the comfort of easy resolution.

Blending her love of pop with the raw edge of industrial influence, ISELLA’s unflinching voice and haunting aesthetic quickly found an audience. Since then, she has toured with Glass Animals, opened for Taylor Swift and will join Florence + The Machine for upcoming US East Coast dates, including shows at Madison Square Garden in New York. Full list of live dates below, including summer Her Desire, The Nemesis European tour and Hinterland Music Festival with more news to come soon.
