Sophie Ballantine Hawkins (born November 1, 1964) is an American singer-songwriter, musician and painter.
Born in New York City, she attended the Manhattan School of Music for a year as a percussionist before leaving to pursue a music career.
She achieved critical and commercial success with her first two albums, producing a string of single hits including "Damn I Wish I Was Your Lover", "Right Beside You", and "As I Lay Me Down".
However, a dispute with her record label Sony Music over her third album, Timbre, caused her to leave, setting up her own independent label.
This label, Trumpet Swan Productions, has published her subsequent recordings. Hawkins is a vegan and long time supporter of animal rights and environmental causes.
She is also a well-known social and political activist, supporting events promoting women in music and LGBT rights.
In 2008, she endorsed Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign.
