Zoe Boekbinder was born on an early winter morning, in the upstairs bedroom of a brown wooden farmhouse on Regional Route #3, in a small township in Ontario, Canada. Zoe's brother, Oliver, was disappointed at her arrival because he was hoping for a brother named Zanzibar.

As a young girl Zoe hated shoes. She insisted on wearing red rubber boots, rain or shine. She ate rutabagas from the garden like apples astride her pony, Suzie.

When she was three years old her father returned home one day to find she had almost sunk her parents' Volkswagon van in a man made pond. When Zoe was four years old her parents sold the family farm and took off for the USA in a big red truck towing a trailer behind it.

It was 2009 when Zoe decided to release an album of songs. She recorded with her friend and producer, Cesar Alvarez, in Brooklyn, NY. Thus, "Artichoke Perfume", was born. She now makes her way around the country stopping in towns and cities to play shows. One of her favorite places to play is New Folsom Prison partly because it makes her feel like Johnny Cash. She resides in Oakland, California and dreams of one day moving to New Orleans or rural southern France.

Zoe has an affinity for mason jars, rusted metal, Dolly Parton, sea creatures, botanical drawings, dilapidated barns, chocolate, avocados, broken hearts, port wine, and the open road. She wants to own a farm someday.
