BIO:
In august 2010 Sander Mölder (producer, composer and multi-instrumentalist) started a pop-electronic collaboration with the singer Anneliis Kits, which grew into several tracks released on Stereo Spectrum’s EP “Conciliation” on 25 october 2010. After a few apperances with Stereo Spectrum, the duo started to work on Sander’s own more jazzy material, which they had performed a couple of times earlier in the spring with the saxophonist Indrek Varend. The trio (by the name of Under Construction) were given the opportunity to warm-up for Tortured Soul in Tallinn at the Autmnjazz Festival 2010.
A week before the performance, Indrek announced his departure to Afganistan (to give a concert to the Estonian soldiers) leaving the other members hopeless. Nevertheless, fate took its proper course and a saxophonist was replaced with the keyboard player Talis Paide (also a producer, composer and multi-instrumentalist). The group also added a drummer, Kristjan Kallas, to bring an acoustic feel to the electronics.
The concept and the act turned out to be a success, and the future of State of Zoe was decided - the newfound UC realized they were a perfect match of ideas and thoughts and loved to play together.
After the debut appearance at the Rock Cafe, several gigs all over Estonia followed, sometimes performing under the name of UC and even Dear mr.John, but it was time to leave the project-based name behind. The singer Anneliis who had emerged onto the Estonian jazz, pop music scene many years before, came up with a stage name – Zoe.
Finally a bandname was born- State of Zoe.
SOZ just released two demo-tracks ”Imaginary” and “Part time”, and is also recording new material for the debut album, hopefully out in the end of 2011.
