XOCH. Her music, her look, her presence, they awaken your senses and demand your attention. With a tour de force of vocals and a commanding stage presence, singer/songwriter front-girl XOCH (pronounced “Zoach”, meaning “the goddess of flower and song”) knows how to grab her audience with huge hooks, a driving and dynamic rock/pop sound, and powerful lyrics that resonate poetically inside your head, refusing to let go.
After working her entire life in NY, XOCH recently relocated to Las Vegas in pursuit of the advancement of her career, and what a great choice it was! In the last several months XOCH has made personal appearances in several television shows and commercials, and has even had a speaking role in the major Universal Studios film "Get Him to the Greek", allowing her membership into the prestigious Screen Actors' Guild. XOCH is currently putting the finishing touches on her 4th CD, which will be released in early 2010. Previous CD releases include the 7-song EP “popcore du jour”, released in June of 2006; “Cabaret”, a 6-song EP released in December of 2004; and “The ONE”, her debut full length album released in January of 2003. “The ONE” was also released throughout Europe in February, 2005 through label and distributor Now & Then Records and Cargo Records.
XOCH has had over 25 major licenses of her original music, including the television broadcast and DVD releases of MTV’s hit series, “Laguna Beach, Season 1” (My Desire) and “Laguna Beach, Season 2” (My Desire, The One, You); ABC’s “All My Children” (My Desire, You, the Waiting, Best I Never Had, Indigo Song, Not That Kind of Girl, Yesterday); comedienne Margaret Cho’s theatrical film and DVD release, “Bam Bam & Celeste” (Best I Never Had); Candlelight Media’s theatrical film and DVD release “Turn Around” (Anything); the Lifetime Television Network Original Movie “Sex and the Single Mom” (The One); promotional materials for the VH1 television program “VH1 Rock Honors” (Crazy Over You); a national TV commercial for a major automobile company (Faith); a nationally released Jeep/Eagle promotional CD entitled “Film Tour Favorites” (My Desire, Johanna’s Café); the documentary “Crash Artist” (Anything, Best I Never Had); the series pilot for the program "On The Prowl" (Anything, Best I Never Had, Dirty Thoughts), among several other notable licenses.
Equally adept at both the intimate setting of a small acoustic performance or a full band electric concert, XOCH is an engaging, provocative and versatile performer. She has shared the stage with such national acts as Evanescence, Joan Osbourne, Pat Benatar, Spin Doctors, Lit, Butch Walker, and many others. She has performed at such famous venues as the House of Blues at Mandalay Bay, CBGB, The Continental, The Knitting Factory, The Bitter End, Arlene Grocery, The Chance Theater, Northern Lights, The Palace Theater, NYC’s MEANYfest, NEMO, the Block Island Music Festival and the Hudson River Arts Festival.
With her range of commercial appeal and her avid following, it is only a matter of time before XOCH invades the airwaves and beckons the listeners to take heed. A new force in female fronted rock/pop is ready to take the world by storm, and her name is XOCH.
