SOFIA DETJEN is a 14x DownBeat Music Award-winning drummer, recording artist, sideperson, collaborator, and session musician. A Utah native, Sofia has quickly established herself as one of the most diverse and in-demand Gen Z drummers currently on the music scene. She is renowned for her immense talent, fierce creativity, and evolving musical style, and she consistently brings passion and joy to her performances.
She has held the stage and collaborated with some of the biggest names in music, including GRAMMY® Award-winning members of Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, Dave Matthews Band, Saturday Night Live Band, AC/DC, Journey, Trombone Shorty, Gordon Goodwin's Big Phat Band, CBS Orchestra, The Killers, Tower of Power, the Blues Brothers, Toto, faculty from The Juilliard School, and more.
From 2020 to 2023, Sofia held the coveted position of lead drummer in the Soundhouse flagship ensemble, Caleb Chapman's Crescent Super Band. Renowned as the world's premier youth jazz ensemble, this group comprised exceptional jazz musicians aged 15 to 18 and held an impressive record of 36 DownBeat Music Awards. In her final year, the band made history by winning awards in the Large Jazz Ensemble, Latin Group, and Pop/Rock/Blues Group categories, an unprecedented feat. She wrapped up her tenure with the band performing in Europe at Jazz à Vienne in France, North Sea Jazz Festival in the Netherlands, and Umbria Jazz Festival in Italy.
Sofia's journey continues as she embarks on the next chapter of her musical career, pursuing advanced studies at Harvard University and Berklee College of Music in the esteemed Harvard-Berklee Dual Degree Program.
