Sophie Truax

San Francisco audiences can look forward to an unusual blend of music, comedy, crafts, and handmade puppetry when Sophie Truax brings the Can’t Split a Worm Tour to The Chapel on Tuesday, September 29, 2026. The all-ages, general-admission show offers a chance to experience an artist whose performances are built around a distinctive combination of self-taught musicianship, visual creativity, and candid humor.

Seattle-born and a self-taught multi-instrumentalist and lifelong crafter, Truax has developed an imaginative world where handmade puppets become much more than stage props. Her music and creative work use those characters to explore uncomfortable feelings, vulnerability, self-doubt, heartbreak, and the complicated process of accepting the parts of ourselves that may feel awkward or difficult. Her approach pairs emotional honesty with a playful sensibility, creating a style that can be both funny and deeply personal.

The tour takes its name from Truax’s EP Can’t Split a Worm, which uses whimsical pop songwriting to consider the inseparability of positive and negative experiences. The project approaches subjects such as heartbreak and insecurity through humor and a spirit of self-acceptance, making the show particularly appealing to listeners who enjoy music that doesn’t take itself too seriously while still having something meaningful to say.

Adding another dimension to the evening is Sasha Cee, a Calgary-raised, Los Angeles-based singer-songwriter and producer. A former Berklee College of Music student, Cee brings a lyric-focused and conversational approach to indie and alternative pop. Her songwriting combines whimsical details, wordplay, and sarcasm with emotional storytelling and introspection.

Fans looking for a more interactive experience can also purchase separate VIP add-ons, provided they also hold a general-admission ticket. The top-tier package includes a pre-show crafting session with Truax to customize an exclusive worm puppet, along with a photo, soundcheck performance, signed item, merchandise access, and other listed extras. A second VIP tier includes an intimate soundcheck, group photo, signed collectible, merchandise access, and early venue entry.

The Chapel is located at 777 Valencia Street in San Francisco. Advance admission is listed at $28, with day-of-show admission at $32, plus applicable ticket fees. ADA seating requests should be made in advance through the venue, as accessible capacity may fill early. With its combination of inventive pop, handmade art, humor, and emotional openness, the Can’t Split a Worm Tour offers Bay Area audiences a decidedly unconventional night out.
