THE HEALING HEARTS TOUR KICKS OFF IN OCTOBER
ACROSS THE UK AND EUROPE
UPCOMING FESTIVAL PERFORMANCES INCLUDE
OSHEAGA AND LOLLAPALOOZA
Pop’s rising it-girl Sofia Camara releases her new single “Girls Like You” today via 21 Entertainment and Universal Music Canada, the country’s leading music company, with international support from Mercury Records in the US and Polydor Records in the UK. The audio arrives alongside a new lyric video, and an official visualizer is coming soon.
“This song is about emotional muscle memory,” explains Camara. “Falling back into old patterns despite warnings and hard-earned lessons. It’s a deeply human experience: the conflict between what we know is best for us, versus what we feel in the moment. It reminds me that even though I’ve loved and lost, there’s something so beautiful about a little bit of danger and the unknown – especially when it feels so familiar, like love. It’s been so exciting to create this song, and I’ve truly enjoyed the process of making music that makes me want to sing and dance like no one is watching. It makes me feel like falling in love and reminds me of the feeling right before you start to fall.”
“Girls Like You” – co-written with and produced by Mike Wise, Nathan Ferraro, Lowell, and Donny Bravo – marks the latest collaboration between Sofia Camara and the award-winning team that co-penned her hit track “Who Do I Call Now? (Hellbent)” last year. Lowell won the 2025 JUNO Award for Songwriter of the Year (Non-Performing) and together with Nathan Ferraro, she co-wrote the chart-topping, GRAMMY-nominated hit “Texas Hold ‘Em” with Beyoncé.
With this new single, Camara temporarily moves away from her heart-wrenching ballads with an up-tempo song of the summer contender. She first previewed “Girls Like You” across sold-out arenas supporting Dean Lewis in Europe and the UK, with fans embracing this sound from the 23-year-old emerging star. Pre-release teasers across socials have since surpassed 14.4M views.
Camara followed her breakthrough success of 2024 with even more highlights in 2025, releasing “With You” – her duet with Dean Lewis – to celebrate their success together on tour. She recently announced her first-ever headline tour across Europe and the UK, heading out on the Healing Hearts Tour in October. Tickets sold-out quickly across most cities, marking the incredible demand for Camara’s live show. Venues have now been upgraded in London, Manchester, Glasgow, Copenhagen, and more. Before she heads overseas, Camara is set to make her festival debuts at Osheaga in Montréal and Lollapalooza in Chicago.
In March, Camara released her debut EP Was I(t) Worth It? including the hits “Starlight” and “Who Do I Call Now? (Hellbent).” The latter has been streamed over 44 million times across platforms.
Last year, Camara kicked off her momentum with performances of the national anthem at the CFL’s 111th Grey Cup and her recorded cover of Nickelback’s “What Are You Waiting For?” at the IIHF World Juniors. She supported Alex Warren across Europe on tour, and Shawn Desman on his Canadian tour.

ABOUT SOFIA CAMARA:
For Sofia Camara, music has always been more than its sound or the feeling that emerges when she strikes the right chord. In her world, sometimes full of uncertainty, noise, and emotion that manifests from places she’d never thought possible, it can be her anchor—the one thing that continually makes sense in a world that often doesn’t.
The viral success of “Who Do I Call Now? (Hellbent)”— now boasting over 44 million global streams—shattered the glass ceiling, launching her into a whirlwind of career-firsts and achievements that followed just as quickly. She took it all in stride—joining Dean Lewis and Alex Warren on their respective European & UK tours, and standing centre stage at the 2024 CFL Grey Cup, where she delivered a gripping performance of the Canadian national anthem. Her beautifully reimagined take of Nickelback’s “What Are You Waiting For?” became the official 2025 IIHF World Junior championship song, further cementing her presence on major stages. But her most defining moment yet was stepping into the spotlight on her own terms—selling out her first headline shows across Europe. As she continues writing new chapters of her story, Sofia rides the high of it all, knowing that wherever her music takes her next, the whole world will be singing along with her.
Her spellbinding ability to reimagine and interpret songs in a way that feels reinvigorating—almost like you’re listening to the song for the first time again— has earned recognition from artists like Miley Cyrus, Justin Timberlake, Tate McRae, Gracie Abrams, and more.
With the release of her debut EP Was I(t) Worth It?, Sofia delivers a body of work that represents who she is at this stage in her career, with the hope that listeners will walk away feeling seen and understood. The multi-track debut EP is a culmination of the experiences, emotions, and stories she’s carried with her since the dream of becoming a musician became her reality, with each song reflecting a different chapter of her legacy.
