ZOË LEWIS … Who Is She?
A worldbeat-vaudeville extravaganza!
ZOË 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! Troubadour/vaudevillian/storyteller/singer-songwriter/piece of work!
Her song SMALL IS TREMENDOUS can be heard on commercials for MINI PRINGLES and for TK MAXX in the U.K. She’s written the soundtrack for a new documentary on the VAGINA MONOLOGUES entiltled VENUS, PRIESTS and SUPERWOMEN and her song SHEEP was included on the PUTUMAYO "Folk Playground" compilation and became 1 in the Satellite radio children’s charts and remained in the top 20 for over 40 weeks.
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 she is now getting booked to play many of the main stages with virtuoso jazz recorder player ROXANNE LAYTON (from Mannheim Steamroller) and teaches songwriting and performance.

Originally from England, she now resides in Provincetown, MA, U.S.A. where she performs every summer to the Cape Cod tourists. Her music is upbeat, amusing and perfect for young and old alike. She has traveled all over the globe picking up worldbeat grooves and stories on the way; jumping box cars, riding on freight boats and has even played music with an elephant orchestra in Thailand. 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.
Zoe has toured all over the Unites States, England, Germany, Australia and aboard OLIVIA cruises. As well as continuing her solo career she is receiving much acclaim for her quartet ZOË LEWIS and her RUBBER BAND with Seattle bassist KATE WOLF, Quebec City percussionist SYLVIE RICHARD and ROXANNE LAYTON, on recorder. Performing upbeat and edgy tunes on a variety of weird instruments, telling traveling tales that will take you from England to New Orleans by way of Bangkok and Guatemala, they bend the notes and stretch your imagination!
Zoe has 5 albums of original material available on www.zoelewis.com
Happy Easter to my very favorite songstress in the whole world :-) We miss you, and Ptown so much! Saw you on YouTube the other day and was happy to get to hear some music!!! OXOXO Jill and Kelly
Hi Zoe, thanks for adding me. Looking forward to your September 6th concert. I'll meet you at the airport. Don't forget to bring your bathing suit! Best, Arlene
Hey Zoe! Loved the kids fun at the Truro Library and then on the Sunset Cruise on 7/5. Great time! Both of us were so excited that we were able to meet the inspiration behind Eyelashes! See ya next time!
Okay, so please disregard the previous message. I knew that line up looked familiar but it says 2008. If today was a cussing day I would have a few choice words for this but as it is, I'll just say the invitation was sincere even it was a year late. Big hugs and an embarrassed grin, Janet
Hi Zoe, Just saw your name on the Wine and Music schedule. I doubt that we'll have another cussing day like we had at Big Folk but we always have something fun going on at Sweetness and Light. Please drop by for some shade and a cold beverage while you're at the ranch. Janet
Hi Zoe. We enjoyed the cd release party in P-Town!! You sounded fabulous as usual. The new CD is quite enjoyable and no one has had the hiccups since we began listening to it :-P ! Be well.
Oh, loverly Zoe! What a treat to see you perform in Seattle. I love crossing paths with you and next time I hope to see you with your other half! xoxo's to you and S
I hope you have a great time in Brighton to celebrate your CD release. I wish I was able to go but I have to work. Darn work gets in the way of everything ! :) Where can you get the CD ? Jane
Hey Zoe! We miss seeing you play live,with us living out here in the Mojave Desert! I sure miss Provincetown, the ocean, and everyone...
