German pop vocalist Zoe Wees is an emotive performer with a dusky, R&B-influenced style. She scored a hit with her 2019 debut single, "Control," which paved the way for her 2021 EP Golden Wings and its hit "Girls Like Us." After the high-profile 6LACK duet "That's How It Goes," Wees continued releasing singles into 2022.

Born in Hamburg, Wees began singing at a young age, inspired by artists like Jessie J and Miley Cyrus. A teacher took notice of her voice at a school concert and helped develop her talents. She had her first brush with fame in 2015 competing on the third season of The Voice Kids, where she made it to the finals. Following her time on the show, Wees launched her career, appearing on Moonbootica's 2019 song "Hibernating." That same year, she released her debut single, "Control." A dramatic, piano-driven ballad, the song was inspired by Wees' childhood battle with benign rolandic epilepsy (BRE). The track eventually cracked the Top 40 in Germany, Belgium, and Austria and landed on the Billboard Adult Top 40 chart. In May 2021, she released her debut EP, Golden Wings, which included "Control" as well as the Top Ten German hit "Girls Like Us" and "Ghost." Later that year, Wees landed another streaming hit with "That's How It Goes," a torchy collaboration with 6LACK. A pair of stand-alone singles, "Lonely" and "Third Wheel," appeared in 2022. ~ Matt Collar, Rovi
