1) A Mexican rock band, that's not not afraid of experimenting, with a modern sound, an eclectic style, some British influences & overall, their music's sophisticated without loss of rock energy. Their lyrics cover many subjects / feelings, with the same level of sophistication that their music shows, plus honesty. They usually write songs in Spanish, sometimes in English or a combination of both languages.
They began as a band in 1994; as time went by, the band changed members several times until the definite lineup stuck in 1997 with León Larregui (vocals and guitar), Sergio Acosta (guitar), Beto Cabrera (drums), Ángel Mosqueda (bass) and Chucho Báez (keyboards). Then the band made a demo and many gigs on their own with the little resources that they had; with all that, Zoé began to call the attention of the hispanic radio stations in the U.S. Later in 1998, Zoé signed a record deal with Sony Music Mexico and began making their first record in 2000; this album, self titled, came out and quickly became a favorite of the audience in Mexico; after that, the band performed songs in soundracks of movies such as 'Amar Te Duele', 'Ladies Night' and 'The Dreamer'.
Fast forward to 2003. Zoé, along with producer Phil Vinall (Placebo, Elastica, Pulp), recorded their second album called 'Rocanlover', which became more successful than the first one thanks to hit songs like 'Peace & Love' and 'Veneno', which aired in several TV countdowns.
In 2005, after three years of working together, Zoé left Sony Music because of the lack of real interest that this record label had in them and signed a new deal with Noiselab; with a newfound belief in record labels, Zoé made an EP called 'The Room', which debuted at the top of the rankings in Mexico. This EP includes, among others, the song 'Dead' (first single); also,are including "She Comes" and "Morning Watts" as new songs and also some remixes of "Dead" by great electronic artists from Mexico such as Sonido Lasser Drakkar or Los Dynamite, plus a couple of videos.
On July 12th, 2006; Zoé (now wih Rodrigo Guardiola in the drums) presented their more recent production, "Memo Rex Commander y el Corazón atómico de la Vía Láctea", a sophisticate, layered production, which tops several magazines' rankings. Both Zoé and producer Phil Vinall worked very hard in Tornillo, Texas, a remote town in the desert, to get "Memo Rex" finished.
In fall 2006, Zoé headlined the Rockampeonato Tour, along with other Noiselab signees like Los Dynamite and Los Odio!, which held shows at cities like Mérida, Guadalajara and many others. This is the biggest tour Zoé has been a part of since they were formed.
In 2007 Zoé recorded "281107", a live album that celebrates their first 10 years as a band, it was recorded on the Palacio de los Deportes in Mexico City, this recording went platinum pretty quickly which is something unusual for live recordings in Mexico. On November 11th 2008 "Repileptric" Zoé's seventh studio album was released.
2) An alias of Zoë Pollock (b. in Peckham, London, UK - aka Zoë, Zoe, Hepzibah Broom & Pollack), is a pop / rock / folk singer who began her career in the mid-80s, dated Martin Glover (aka Youth, who produced her early work), released three solo albums (two as Zoë, another as Hepzibah Broom) & several singles. She is now a member of Mama.
Her 1991 début, Scarlet Red And Blue (originally, released as Zoë's Scarlet Red And Blue), contained Sunshine On A Rainy Day & "Lightning" (aka Sunshine On A Rainy Day & Lightning, with 'Zoe' spelling), which have been her biggest hits, to date (peaking at #4 & #37, respectively - on the UK chart).
In 1996, Zoë re-emerged - still with M & G Records & bringing a revamped image / style / sound - releasing an americana-styled rock album, Hammer.
Re-emerging again, around 2008, she has released Hepzibah Broom (as Hephzibah Broom) & formed female folk duo 'Mama' (with singer Sarah McQuaid - their début release is Crow Coyote Buffalo).
3) A French-speaking variétés françaises singer, whose tune "Je Porte Un Toast" sounds like a cross between Françoise Hardy & Lamb.

Zoé Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Pero nada se detiene
Solo vivo para ti
Dame solo un beso que me alcance hasta morir
Como un vicio que me duele
Quiero mirarte a los ojos
Luna
Que tiendo a recuperarme
En la cuna de tus cráteres
Silencio
Se abre la tierra
Y se alzan los mares
Al compás del volcán
Y cuando te me acercas
Se acelera mi motor
Me das fiebre
Me hago fuego y me vuelvo a consumir
Dame solo un beso que me alcance hasta morir
Como un vicio que me duele
Quiero mirarte a los ojos
Luna
No me abandones mas
Que tiendo a recuperarme
En la cuna de tus cráteres
Silencio
Se abre la tierra
Y se alzan los mares
Al compás del volcán
The song "Luna" by Zoé is a passionate and intense plea for the love and affection of the person they desire. The lyrics describe a desire for a simple kiss that can take them to the point of death. The singer understands that they cannot beg for this love anymore, but they live solely for this one person. They want to look into their eyes and feel the intensity of their love. The chorus is a call for the Moon (Luna) not to abandon them, as they tend to recover in the cradle of its craters. The silence is broken by the Earth opening up and the seas rising to the beat of the volcano. As the person they desire comes closer, the singer's motor accelerates, and they become consumed by the fire of their love.

Concuerdo con el comentario de Roger Pat.
En su documental donde hicieron los preparativos para dicho concierto se puede apreciar realmente el esfuerzo, el talento de cada miembro del grupo para lograr este resultado, claramente se imaginaron capturar estos sonidos una vez de puede visualizar el trabajo que se llevó e incluso se comenta sobre varias canciones que estaban pensando en incorporar en el concierto de MTV Unplugged las cuales fueron descartadas ya que no se podía apreciar el sonido acustico por sonidos que fueron acompañados con instrumentos sintetizadores, aquí buscaron canciones de su repertorio más organicas que se acoplen a lo que querían.
Con mucho orgullo puedo decir que sigo a zoé desde que iba en la primaria pero su sonido que los caracteriza cada vez me sorprende más, este fue un antes y un después en la carrera de Zoé.
El ajuste de voz de león y el oido perfecto para saber que canciones y con cuales artistas invitados quedaría a la medida, la calidad de sonido de Sergio Acosta es de otro nivel, otro mundo.
Ángel Mosqueda en su trabajo de bajo le da un toque melancolico y frío, algo que te pone la piel de gallina.
Rodrigo Guardiola y su manejo con la batería no deja de asombrar e incluso en conciertos en vivo lo veo muy centrado, adeacuado a cada melodía.
Jesús Baez un dominio que le da el toque a zoé, no solamente caracteristico de su sonido "intergalactico" ya que sin perder ese toque lo trajo en acustico como los demás, simplemente maravilloso.
Zoé una de las agrupaciones, bandas y musicos más importantes de México, orgullosamente de ser mexicano con esta caracterización musical.
Recomiendo el documental como Panoramas, ojalá más personas puedan ver el esfuerzo y amor a la música que logró Zoé, todo esto no fué de la nada, no fué algo espontaneo, fue un trabajo desde 1997 hasta la actualidad.
