London-born singer/songwriter, ZE , fuses gospel themes with a contemporary, unrban and soulful sound.The first collection of songs from the Birmingham-based alto is DUE FOR RELEASE SHORTLY and is conspicuously different without making deliberate detours to be so.A labour of love relecting her depth of faith and creativity, ZE worked intensively with global funk band, One Nation (Greenbelt/NthFest 2007) frontman James Cannock to produce this full-length release encompassing a variety of styles with ease and fluidity.The cool easy sound of "Can't Help but Wonder" is already making an impact on radio worldwide and has been featured on a single by European charity, CORD, in support of young children impacted by the worsening crisis in Darfur."...original sound"
Samuel Purdy - Radio Consultant (Northern Ireland). . .a great voice!!!! I'm really liking what I've heard. THIS is the sound of ZE!
DJ D-ZINE - Westside FM, London"Good, interesting sound . . .. something a little different "
Geoff Howlett -BBC Radio Humberside, UK"A contemporary sound with gentle South American undertones. Very enjoyable. "
Rob Hilliar (on Can't Help but Wonder) - Flame FM & Radio AtlantaZE comments on the journey leading to the completion of the project "I suppose it feels like a gamble. Risking the certainty of the familiar to fulfil a God-given dream/purpose and embark on a dimly-lit path that may or may not lead to success. And what is success anyway? Financial security? Career longevity? Or maybe just touching another person. Affecting another life. Always ploughing, giving, serving,. . .and remembering, Lord everything under heaven belongs to You. Your treasure in earthen vessels. Your Delight."For more information log onto ze-songs.com and join Ze's mailing list. Booking enquiries please contact Lola Amoo or Kiran Thaper at
