PANTHA is the stage name of Sophie Sebald, a German singer-songwriter based in Mannheim. She grew up in a musical family rooted in classical music, learning piano and flute as a child before going on to study songwriting in Cologne.
Over the past few years she has carved out her own corner of German-language pop, pairing soft, melodic vocals with honest, diary-like lyrics. Songs such as "10 Dinge", "Richtig scheisse" and "Das muss Liebe sein" have earned her millions of streams and a reputation for turning everyday insecurities into catchy, relatable pop. "Ich" continues that thread, digging into self-image and the pressure to be someone else.
