EARTH2ZOE, an indie pop artist hailing from Toronto, has just dropped her latest track, “LAME‘,” which is sure to resonate with fans of electro pop. If you’re into Gayle colliding with the vibes of Billie Eilish, you’ll love the track.
Regarding her most recent single, earth2zoe shares, “The creation of ‘lame’ unfolded rapidly after I uncovered a painful truth. My boyfriend messaged me with a text that went something like, ‘Babe, I have this major business thing tonight, but I promise to make it up to you.’ Consequently, I found myself stranded at home on Valentine’s Day, consumed by boredom. It was then that I plunged headfirst into the realm of social media, doing what we all tend to do—scrolling through profiles. In the process, I stumbled upon the social media posts of a familiar face from my past. Astonishingly, a picture uploaded just five minutes ago depicted my boyfriend and this individual sharing a luxurious dinner at a high-end restaurant. Talk about serendipity, right? In that precise moment, fueled by a whirlwind of anger and heartache, I seized my guitar and commenced the composition of the initial verse of ‘Lame.’ In a burst of creative energy, I urgently reached out to my producer, and within an hour, the song took shape. Rather than firing off a message to my less-than-honorable ex, the lyrics flowed out of me in their raw and unfiltered form.”
Zoe Katzberg, a twenty-year-old raised in a suburb north of Toronto, has adopted the stage name earth2zoe. Previously known as Zoelly, she made waves with her hit track “Blowing Smoke,” which amassed an impressive 1.6 million streams. Warner Music Canada took note of her independent release, “Video Games,” back in 2019. Following her rebranding as earth2zoe, her debut single, “Hallie’s Song,” released through Wax Records in 2021, jumped to #26 spot on the Hot AC chart.
On TikTok, earth2zoe’s profile has attracted over 1.5 million views, where she empowers and inspires women to embrace authenticity, shatter boundaries, and venture beyond their comfort zones. Following the release of her latest single, ‘Amnesia,’ in 2022, she embarked on a Challenges Campaign that successfully raised over $5,000 for Plan International. Teaming up with Maitreyi Ramakrishnan from the Netflix original series ‘Never Have I Ever,’ they conquered the Edge Walk atop Toronto’s CN Tower as the final challenge.
