REVIEWS & AWARDS
JEFF HEALEY
"She has created probably the biggest buzz vocally of any singer I've heard about in years in Toronto. All of the comments, compliments and credos going around the city about her are not unfounded. She is wonderful."
FRANK JOHN HADLEY (Downbeat magazine/USA)
"Don't doubt this contemporary blues Amazon for a minute. Zoe's album gets to places others can't reach. She sings with earnest elegance and evinces total emotional involvement with the lyric."
GRAEME SCOTT (Blues Matters Magazine /UK)
