In 2015 she released her first family music album: Mi Viaje: De Nuevo León to the New York Island (Parents' Choice Foundation Gold Award Winner) a collection of songs that reflect her experiences growing up in Mexico, moving to another country, learning about other cultures, and in the process, feeling closer to her own heritage.

She has performed with her band in renowned venues and festivals such as Lincoln Center, Carnegie Hall, The National Gallery of Art, Lollapalooza, Austin City Limits, Smithsonian Folklife Festival, and more. 
 In 2020, she launched En Casa con Sonia, an online musical series recorded from her home, and in 2021, she debuted ¿Qué Pasa, Sonia? a new radio segment featuring some of her favorite songs at Sirius XM’s Kids Place Live.
