ZZ WARD: SINGER/SONGWRITER


TIL THE CASKET DROPS is the debut album of ZZ Ward released to iTunes. 10/16/2012.  The American singer songwriter combines Blues, Rock, Hip-hop, and R&B all into a combined effort sure to attract attention to the serious listener.

ZZ (ZSuzsanna Eva Ward) has been singing the blues since the age 12-13 with her dad a blues singer. She was introduced early on to Etta James, Muddy Waters, and all the blues legends, but her love is Hip-hop and she claims she is  inspired by the likes of Nicki Minaj.

While her love of hip-hop is her inspiration, the singer/songwriter showcases the essence of traditional music in all her tracks.  Her vocals are unambiguous and her delivery is lyrical but concise.

Tracks of Interest:  ‘Put The Gun Down’ (As Performed on Jay Leno, 11/1/2012)
‘Save My Life’, ‘Lil Darlin’, ‘If I could Be Her’, and more. 

There is no one out there like her at the moment, meaning with pure vocals, but similarities can be found in her style when compared to  Grace Potter, Josh Stone,  and Missy Higgins.
