Sophie Payten has lived two lives. In one, she is Gordi, the Aria-nominated singer-songwriter who has worked with Bon Iver and Troye Sivan, and made Chris Martin cry (more on that later). In the other, she is a medical doctor.
“In the early years of my career, I tried to really not talk about medicine in my music life, because they felt so separate,” the 32-year-old says. “The pandemic really merged them together in a way that I didn’t ask for or anticipate.”
