WHAT THEY SAY about ZOUX...
"This is a powerful pop triumph combining stylish songwriting, great lyrics, super harmonies, big production, and lots of ear candy. Zoux has all the great pop song masters rolled up in this brlliant disc. Lovers of Elvis Costello, Squeeze, Jellyfish, McCartney, Afghan Whigs, The Who, The Pills, Gigolo Aunts, The Beatles...etc. should absolutely own this disc. I'm so glad i do." - Joel Simches, THE NOISE
"Holy freakin' moses! What an independent album I foundin this hidden treasure. This is a damn good modern powerpop treasure somewhere between Bens Folds Five, Jellyfish, Owsely, Squeeze and The Shazam. Great vocals and a very nice groovy modern powerpop production. Geeeh.... this is DAMN good to be honest. Second out "Why Ask Why" is one helluva tune and the Ben Folds-esque "Nothing So Ordinary" is another great tune for sure. Nahh there are tons more good tunes. In the highest league of indie-albums I've heard in a long time, Yepp - big words, everyone one of 'em is true!" - Par Winberg www.melodic.net
"Anyone who tells you craftsmanship is dead in pop music hasnt been listening to Zoux, whose carefully constructed R&B inspired songs whip up whirlwind of interesting sounds and heartfelt emotions." - David Wildman, THE BOSTON GLOBE
"This lad who honed his keyboard skills at Berklee, has unleashed a big lush, pop disc, a mix of glam-influenced rock and pop that explodes out of the speakers...you have a shimmering display of well-crafted pop tunes, energetic, and full of life." - Bill Ribas STREET BEAT, NYRock
"Zoux lays down a bustling collection of memorable songs that rock with fierce intensity...An astounding effort from a talented guy that I am sure we'll be hearing a lot more from." - METRONOME MAGAZINE
