Tori Sparks was born in Chicago. She later lived and recorded for years in Nashville, but has always spent most of her time on the road. 

Since the age of 18 she has played over 150 concerts each year and has played in 24 countries. Her strength as a live performer lies her ability to seamlessly blend musical genres and to connect with audiences of all walks of life, be it playing for 100 people in a small club, or for 30,000 people at prestigious music festivals such as Montreux Jazz Festival (Switzerland), Bele Chere (USA); Festival Jardins Pedralbes (Spain); Su La Testa (Italy); others. She is a sought-after public speaker at professional conferences such as SXSW, WOMEX, PrimaveraPro and more, and is known for giving back to the community through music.

From 2007 to 2011, Tori put out four albums on her own label, Glass Mountain Records, featuring some of Nashville’s top musicians. In 2011 Tori Sparks moved from Nashville to Barcelona, Spain, and in just a few years had already left her mark on her adopted country. In 2018, rock magazine Popular1 put Sparks on the list of the five most important female voices in Spain; in 2019 she received the award for Rock Artist of the Year by No Solo Cine magazine; her voice can be heard in commercials and soundtracks, such as the Netflix series Sky Rojo (from the creators of Money Heist). 

Tori’s next two albums, El Mar (2014) and La Huerta (2017) were collaborations with Barcelona-based flamenco fusion trio Calamento and electric guitarist El Rubio. Their unusual mix of blues, rock, and flamenco sung in both English and Spanish started out as a side project, but quickly grew to be an international success, called "adventurous, pushing the envelope" (Rolling Stone), and “pure art” (Los Conciertos de Radio3, TV2). Their third album together, a double live album called Wait No More, was released on vinyl and double CD on Record Store Day 2019. “A flawless live album… an extraordinary fusion of styles,” said national newspaper La Vanguardia in its review.  

In fall 2020, Tori and the band released a single recorded in lockdown. “The Man Who Sold the World" was recorded at five separate apartments scattered throughout the city. Download the new single ”The Man Who Sold the World” here, and watch the new music video — half animation, half video — here. The song is also included as a bonus digital download in the Record Store Day release of the limited-edition vinyl version of El Mar, in celebration of Tori’s 10th anniversary in Barcelona.  

Now, Tori and her band are touring behind not one, but two separate live shows: El Mar Electric and Roots Music Revival. 

Two projects at once? Why not? Tori and her band are always on the move. They debuted El Mar Electric along with a live EP of the same name in 2023, in a series of not one, but five sold-out concerts in Barcelona. The show is an homage to the mix of cultures and musical styles —  Spanish, Catalan, American, Arabic, Latin, and more — that have marked Tori’s 20+ year career. She and the band took the blues, rock, and flamenco fusion show on the road in tours in Germany, Spain, and Morocco, before their travels were cut short this past summer by an unexpected injury to her vocal cords, compounded by a severe case of COVID in summer of 2023. As a result, Tori — who can usually play through anything — lost her voice completely, and had to go through six months of vocal rehabilitation before finally returning to the stage in March 2024.

Now, she’s back and stronger than ever. In Spring 2024, she and the band presented their second, separate project: Roots Music Revival. The repertoire draws on tunes from Tori’s first four albums from her Nashville and Chicago days, and reflects a return to her musical beginnings. This is a musical “revival” to be sure, in the sense that the style of music is pure Americana, but it's also a personal revival as Tori remembers and pays tribute to her musical beginnings.  These high-energy concerts show off a different side of the band, whose roots and blues sensibilities run deep.

Tori and the band will continue to tour throughout 2025 while they also begin work on their next studio album, due for release in 2026.

Tori Sparks is proud to be endorsed by D'Addario Strings since 2007, and by Thembe Fashions since 2016.

I’m an alt pop singer-songwriter who has a deep love for melody, the joy of collaboration, and the magic of leaning into limitation.  I use songwriting as a tool to excavate and express experiences & emotion, whether we’re dreaming or discovering what’s been buried, quietly undisturbed.

From CCM, contemporary folk, electronic pop, urban soul, to post rock/trip hop and alt rock collabs, story is story, and I’m here for it -- honoring the vulnerability and universality that beats wildly and fearfully in us all.
