Zoe and Zara are an independent, soul/jazz and feel-good duo from Bedford who formed back in 2011. The girls are also twin sisters (they clearly have awesome genes) and are now situated in the capital, London.
Originally Zara entered the Jazz realm and performed on the London scene between 2009-2010. At this time Zoe performed within theatre, winning an award for ‘Outstanding Performance’ at the 2010 Leatherhead Drama Festival. The two opted to work together when they randomly improvised a performance . The singer/songwriters recall the host stating ‘You two have enough energy to cure the world of all negativity, its much like a nuclear bomb of melodic love’. This sparked the formation of Zoe and Zara as an official act and the two began work on their music career.
In 2013 Zoe and Zara released their first official single ‘My Man’. This song incapsulated a smooth, strong groove and the music video epitiomized the message the duo aimed to convey. ‘Strong, independent women, have you got what it takes to be my man?’. Following on from ‘My Man’ Zoe and Zara released their upbeat and melodic song, ‘Beat Up in My Head and their latest releases ‘Get up Now and Cool Love’ have continued this pattern of soulful, feel good music.
Zoe and Zara are currently working on their EP whilst also performing at a range of different venues. Shows include Passing Clouds, Dalston, Music Is My Drug, Hackney and festivals include ‘Bounce Festival, Richmond Upon Thames.
Talented singing twins, Zoe and Zara write their own songs and aim to deliver a positive, feel good message through storytelling, harmonies and uplifting melodies, supported by their funky band!
