ZOE HESELTON : 2026 Tour
With an exceptional voice – stretchable, deeply embodied – and a daredevil approach to the electric guitar, Zoe Heselton, whether alone, in a duo or a trio, sings what we might call songs for lack of a better word, but which are really vertigos, long falls, dances for getting back up.

We are proud to announce the arrival of Zoe Heselton, whose latest album ‘Another Kind Of Suicide‘ completely floored us.

BIO
Zoe Heselton is a British-born poet, songwriter, guitarist, and singer based in Strasbourg. Her music – steeped in traditional, folk, blues, and flamenco influences, spoken word poetry, and a wide range of eclectic and experimental inspirations – is both intimate and vibrant. Performed with a fierce yet sensitive electric guitar, her music moves between vulnerability and power, exploring themes of darkness and healing. Moving between melody and dissonance, her songs are litanies for survival, poems of tenderness and rage.
