Zoë’s Project with Leesta Vall Recording Studios in Brooklyn
“Leesta Vall Sound Recordings is a niche record label based in Brooklyn, NY with an exclusive focus on vinyl releases. Though we have several unique and ongoing vinyl-related initiatives, the label was founded on the back of our Direct-to-Vinyl Live Sessions project, which are live performances at our studio cut directly to 7” lathe cut vinyl records. No tracking or overdubs of any kind. Just a song played live (mixed & mastered on the fly) and cut right to limited edition lathe cut vinyl records.
Our mission is to provide an authentic, one-to-one experience between artist and listener. These records are like audio polaroids; they capture music in its truest form, live, in real-time, resulting in a completely unique piece of physical merchandise that the owner can cherish forever.”

HOLLY & ZOË
Experimental musical collaborations between myself and Holly Mae Haddock (aka: Team Bright)
Open Up The Space (2014)
This song was created via Holly Mae’s project called 7 X 7. We created the song in 7 passes total back and forth to each other living in different countries. Holly in the US and me in Mexico.
That I Am (2013)
This song was created based on a project inspired the Werner Herzog film The 5 Obstructions. A project were we were gave ourselves 5 parameters within which to create a song.
1) Write and record a whole song in one day
2) Use autotune
3) Holly creates the music
4) Zoë creates the lyrics, melody and vocals
5) Find a way to put the separate pieces together
Start From Where I Am (2005)
In this collaboration, Holly Mae and I were discussing our frustrations and insecurities with music making, and then we decided to turn those feelings into a song of self-approval!
Borderline (2004)
In our first collaboration, Holly Mae and I decided to write a song using 5 obstructions (or limitations).
Write and record a song in one day
Choose 3 words at random from the dictionary to incorporate into the song
Dictionary
Catheter
Borderline
Use arpeggio chords
Use only acoustic instruments
I can’t remember the last one!
Women Awakening Song/ Cancion de Las Mujeres Despertar (2018)
And for our most recent, and most ambition collaboration yet, Holly Me and I teamed up again on a musical project with over 80 women at Women Awakening/El Despertar de La Mujeres, a bilignual women’s summit at Cuatro Vientos in Todos Santos. Holly and I wrote chords and a melody, that included verses, a chorus and 2 different bridges to accommodate lyrics that we workshopped with the group - we wanted them to incorporate their lyrical impressions from the 9 different female-led workshops that we had all experienced together over the weekend. The result is a 5 minute song in both Spanish and English.
Here is a video I put together that shows the highlights of the process, the audio is the finished song that we all sang together at the end of the workshop:
