Zoe was born in Liberia, in a place called Bong Mine. Only six months later, she left her homeland on the coast of West Africa and moved to Penzberg in Bavaria. As a toddler, Zoe discovered a piano in the house and soon showed such an ear for music that she started piano lessons at the age of four. After passing her university entrance exam Zoe went to Munich, to study songwriting and jazz at music school. She applied for an audition in 1996 at Kosmo Records, whose boss immediately gave her an artist contract.
She followed up the critical success of her first record "Love can change so much" (2001) with a remake of the reggae cult number "Uptown Top Ranking" by the female duo Althea & Donna from 1978. It was Zoe's duet/combination version of "Uptown Top Ranking" with Prezident Brown, one of Jamaica's most highly regarded dancehall singers, that did most to win her recognition in the world of reggae between Kingston, New York and Toronto. By 2003 Zoe was working with Germany's reggae star Gentleman on the single "Could It Be You", which she sang together with Ky-Mani Marley. Her impressive debut album "Zoeciety" appeared soon afterwards. Read more:http://blogs.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.view&friendId=181919904&blogId=259802222#ixzz0qz0nD6pf
