ZOE LEWIS is a band in a body! She plays jazz, ,jump jive, latin grooves, swing, international folk, funk originals on anything from the piano to the spoons!
Originally from England, she now resides in Provincetown, MA, U.S.A. where she performs every summer to the Cape Cod tourists. She was WINNER of the Colorado Rocky Mountain Folks Festival Troubadour award in 2003, NEW FOLK WINNER 2002 at the Kerrville Folk Festival in Texas and 2001 Falconridge Folk Festival AUDIENCE FAVORITE and now she's getting booked to play many of the main stages with virtuoso jazz recorder player Roxanne Layton, (from Mannheim Steamroller).
Her music's upbeat, amusing and perfect for all ages. She's toured all over the world picking up musical influences along the way and while at once setting listeners off balance with her quirky spin on things she sneaks in simple, potent messages, leaving audiences worn out and inspired.
Practically a one-woman band, an energetic, edgy, multi-instrumentalist. There's a touch of Ireland in her tin whistling; a little New Orleans in her piano playing; even hints of Latin America in many of her tunes. A troubadour, a Vaudevillian, a storyteller. She's more like a musical circus than a singer-songwriter!
" She's got it all-a masterful combination of song, performance and artistry with a contagiously positive attitude and free spirit. Probably the most charismatic live performer I've ever seen .
" She stormed the stage playing everything from swinging folk and latin jazz to acoustic funk and sprightly celtic flavoured tunes. Her boundless energy was hard to ignore .
