Event description
Internationally acclaimed vocalist Zoe K has been commanding the stage with her blend of jazz and soul with an added pinch of that old school substance and style.
Having relocated to Sydney & now residing in Gosford after performing at her second home New Orleans, Zoe K is a fresh addition to the music scene with a remarkable voice that pays tribute to the bygone greats of soul, jazz and blues. Originally from a small town where marriage and Avon representation were the predominant domains of aspiration, Zoe K was determined to break the mould. Spurning tradition for turntables, she spent years locked in her room mimicking every Etta James, Erykah Badu, and Ruth Brown record she could find, eventually rising to prominence when she swept up the 1223 ABC Female Vocalist of the Year award.
In New Orleans, Zoe K was a featured vocalist for Kermit Ruffins (who featured on the HBO series 'Treme'), performed in venues on Frenchmen Street tand was also selected to perform her originals from her album 'It's Just What I Like' at the New Orleans French Quarter Festival.
Her local achievements back in her Aussie soil include performing at festivals such as Woodford Folk Festival, Manly Jazz Festival, Gumball and was also asked to perform at events such as the film premiere of 50 Shades Of Grey at Fox Studios, Sydney and The Archibald Prize Tour. Zoe K was also invited to support one of her idols, the late Renee Geyer, Jon Cleary, Linda and Vika Bull, Mo Ju and Imelda May. With her hard working, 6 inch pump wearing, immaculate hair, this unapologetic show pony has no signs of slowing down.
