"I've never heard an album so compelling it feels like you're being made love to. It leaves you drunk and naked and blissful without knowing what's going to happen next."

PRESS:
"When Zoe Boekbinder, on tour supporting her new album Artichoke Perfume, took to the stage the entire evening was transported to a whole new level as if by some sort of magical beanstalk. With songs that exhibited playful storytellings containing twists like the barbs of roses, one couldn't help but catch themselves leaning forward as if trying to catch a better glimpse of the stories unfolding in their mind."
- Jamaal Jackson, Seattle Underground Music Examiner
"Zoe sounds a little like Jolie Holland dancing on Billie Holiday's gramophone player in Tom Waits's New Orleans hotel room."
- Newt Lynn - Read It Here - Prescott AZ Weekly Paper
"If I hadn't had the chance to meet her in person I would have thought she was years older than she is. She sings with confidence, authority and a wisdom that seems informed by years of regret."
