Zowie Is Coming
. Zowie is due to land on US shores in October for shows in Los Angeles and at the CMJ Marathon in New York City. Coming on like a teenage Joan Jett with a drum machine, all Pulp Fiction bangs and kaleidoscopic baton swinging, Zowie is a futuristic cheerleader from planet Wow. A whip-smart 22 year old karate-proficient Antipodean with a penchant for percussion, a hyperglycemic imagination and a dizzying creative ferocity. Described by one music critic in her native New Zealand as "a tiny dynamo of electrifying, positive energy" Zowie has distilled a bubbling mix of vintage synth-pop, shimmering electro, playground chants and rock n roll swagger to create a moxy-fuelled sound all of her own. As a beat-obsessed adolescent Zowie matched her encyclopaedic enthusiasm for drumming by mastering everything she needed to fully flesh out her own songs: vocals, guitar and programming. While studying for a music diploma in her hometown of Auckland she created enough buzz with laptop crafted demos to garner airplay on national radio and in the past 18 months she's performed at some of the country's biggest festivals � The Big Day Out, Rhythm And Vines � as well as performing opening sets for the likes of The Kills and Peaches.
