"TEARS IN HEAVEN"
All the Funds raised from the download of this
song from iTunes goes directly to the charity
"Downside Up" helping Downs Children in 
Russia who are forgotten and neglected!!

 

14 year old Zoë started her singing 
career at the tender age of nine when 
she recorded her first CD “Little Ray of
Light” in October 2004, to raise funds 
for the New Oxford Children’s Hospital,
as a token of gratitude to the doctors 
and nurses who had looked after her 
sister Jodie.  Jodie was born with
Downs Syndrome and a heart defect 
and due to have open heart surgery
on 2nd March 2005.  The album was 
released on 8th November throughout 
Zoë’s hometown of Oxfordshire; she
was even invited to sing live on 
GMTV!  All 5,000 copies sold in just
5 weeks raising a staggering £27,000!


After the success of her first album
Zoë wanted to record a second album
to raise funds for The Downs Syndrome
Association, which she named 
“Songs For My Sister”.  
Plans were made to record this album 
in Zoë’s Easter holidays, just after Jodies
heart operation.  Unfortunately, Jodie 
did not survive her heart operation 
and passed away on 2nd March 2005.
Zoë and Jodie had the most incredible
bond; they were devoted to each other.

Zoë cared for her sister like a parent
cares for their child, nothing was too
much. Just 4 weeks after the tragic and
unexpected death of her sister, Zoë 
recorded “Songs for My Sister” making
this a tribute to Jodie.  
“Songs for My Sister” was released 
nationwide in the UK on 6th June 2005
in conjunction with Downs Syndrome 
Awareness Week.  Zoë returned to
GMTV on that day to officially launch
the album and the immediate response
was huge!   
Six days after the release date Zoë’s 
album reached No 2 in the Solo Classical
UK artist charts and No 5 in the Classical
Charts!

Zoë has performed in many professional
charity shows alongside many celebrities
a soloist with the The Royal Marines 
and on Sunday 18 June 2006 at The New
Theatre in Oxford hosted her first ever
show "Zoë Mace & Stagecoach Charity
Spectacular” selling 2,500 tickets and 
raising £20,000 for charity.

In the last 3 years Zoë’s fund raising
efforts have been rewarded by many 
organisations and she has been named
Fox FM Radio’s Local Hero,
Mencap Young Person of the Year, 
ITV Central Television Local Hero, 
The Year of the Volunteer Award"
from the CSV charity 
and Argos Wavemaker Award 
for raising in excess of £120,000.

Zoë's first love will always be music 
and as well as singing she plays the
piano and the drums and writes her 
own songs and lyrics.  But school
work is very important to this 13 
year old who is an Allen academic 
scholar at Cokethorpe School in 
Witney, Oxfordshire.  Zoë's ambitions
are to continue to sing and perform
as well as attend university to study
music, English Drama and Mathematics!
 
19th November 2007 saw the release
of  Zoë’s third album titled 
“Once upon a time”
produced by Andy Whitmore.  
“Once upon a time” features some
of the worlds best loved songs including 
a duet with one of the premiere singers
in the classical crossover world Geoff 
Sewell.  New Zealander Geoff is one
of the founders of “Amici forever” who
sold many hundreds of thousands of 
albums worldwide and their 
performance together on “Time to 
say goodbye” is simply stunning!

Zoe's diary continues to grow with
sell-out performances, but school 
always comes first!   

Zoe is currently writing her own 
material, exploring new and exciting
music styles as well as mantaining
her voice coaching whilst it rapidly
matures.
