She became one of the four singers of Izar-Adatz (Shooting Star), a variety band which consisted of sixteen people with whom she toured for two years, especially in the Midi-Pyrenees and the Basque Country. She worked in the studio as a chorister in Toulouse and performed with many singers including Maeso, Art Mengo, Vladimir Max, Jean-Pierre Mader and Serge Guerao.
In May 2010, French magazine Telerama announced: "Rumor has swelled in recent weeks: Zaz is a sacred voice, and she will be the revelation of the summer!". On 10 May 2010, Zaz released her first album. It contains songs written by herself ("Trop sensitible") and co-composed ("Les Passants", "Le Long de la route", "Prends garde à ta langue", "J'aime à nouveau", "Ni Oui Ni Non"). Kerredine Soltani produced the album under Play On label, and wrote and composed the hit single "Je veux". The pop singer Raphaël Haroche wrote her songs "Éblouie par la nuit", "Port Coton" and "La Fée". In 2010, she signed a contract for her tours with Caramba and publisher Sony ATV. She was invited to many TV shows (such as Taratata or Chabada) and was featured in several programs on the radio.
Zaz then toured France (Paris, La Rochelle, Montauban, Saint-Ouen, Chateauroux, Landerneau, Fécamp...), performed at the Francofolies of Montreal (Canada), Monthey (Switzerland), Brussels, Berlin, and Milan... In autumn Zaz topped the charts in Belgium, Switzerland, and Austria. Matthieu Baligand, her manager and producer at Caramba Entertainment, explained to Liberation: "We talk a lot of her right now and people are waiting her at the turn... Despite the demand, it seems preferable to do her first tour in fifty small places which will render her credible. Zaz is a popular, intuitive artist, who is familiar with music, who can sing, but doing a quality show is something else (...)." In November 2010, the debut album Zaz became double platinum, and she was awarded "Revelation Song" by the Academy Charles Cros. Zaz also won the European Border Breaker Awards: she was named the French artist most played abroad in 2010. According to a survey published by L'Internaute, Zaz was the most favorite singer of the French in the 2010 ranking

Les passants
by Zaz
Les passants passant
Je passe mon temps à les regarder penser
Leurs pas pressés, dans leurs corps lésés
Leurs passés se dévoilent dans les pas sans se soucier
Que, suspicieuse, à l'affût, je perçois le jeu de pan
Leur visage comme des masques me fait l'effet répugnant
Que faire semblant
C'est dans l'air du temps
Passe, passe, passera, la dernière restera
Passe, passe, passera, la dernière restera
L'enfant n'est fait que de fêtes
Le fait est que l'effet se reflète
À sa capacité de prendre le fait tel qu'il est
Sans se référer
À un système de pensée dans sa tête
L'automne déjà, c'était l'été hier encore
Le temps me surprend, semble s'accélérer
Les chiffres de mon age
M'amènent vers ce moi rêvé
Passe, passe, passera, la dernière restera
Passe, passe, passera, la dernière restera
Chaque mois se joue dans des cycles différents
C'est marrant ces remous
Qui m'animent à travers le temps d'un état à un autre
J'oscille inexorablement
Par les temps, je cours à l'équilibre
Chaque jugement sur les gens me donne la direction à suivre
Sur ces choses en moi, à changer
Qui m'empêchent d'être libre
Les voix se libèrent et s'exposent
Dans les vitrines du monde en mouvement
Les corps qui dansent en osmose
Glissent, tremblent, se confondent
Et s'attirent irrésistiblement
Par les temps je cours à l'expression
Chaque émotion ressentie me donne envie d'exprimer les non-dits
Et que justice soit faite dans nos pauvres vies endormies
Passe, passe, passera, la dernière restera
Passe, passe, passera, la dernière restera
Passe, passe, passera, la dernière restera
Passe, passe, passera, la dernière restera
Passe, passe, passera, la dernière restera
Passe, passe, passera, la dernière restera
