I have a fond affection for singer songwriters. Yes, a hugely fond affection for singer songwriters. However, in the case of Zoe Boekbiner, I’m head over heals & smitten.
I first came into contact with Zoe when she came in town last year with her group Vermillion Lies, which her and her sister Kim play in. I was blown away by this sister act. They’re songs were all wonderfully catchy and witty. However, I’m super excited about seeing Zoe play a solo set because I think her voice is absolutely incredible.
Each one of Zoe’s songs exhibit some sort of storytelling, with twists and turns that the listener in turn attempts to follow. She does everything and more which I want a singer-songwriter to do! With a little Billie Holiday in her voice, as well as a New Orleans folksy feel, everytime I see Zoe play, she creates an air of confidence which is beautiful with every note and melody.
Personally, I’m looking forward to seeing Zoe playing her album without a full band. I hear she’s bringing loop pedals with her, can we say Theresa andersson like?
Zoe will be playing in New Orleans this WEDNESDAY! October 14th at the All-Ways Lounge with Luke-Winslow King! Come out and check out how amazing Miss Boekbinder is.
