ZoSia Karbowiak

Poland

ZoSia was born and raised in Poland. Although she has never had formal music lessons, she obtained her first level of music while attending primary school...Between the ages six and thirteen, ZoSia learned the basics of percussion, piano and she also sang in the school choir mandatory. It was during these years she studied classical music, and this gave her a solid foundation to expand her music abilities. In high school, the opportunity to study music was gone, so she continued this practice and learn on her own. She started to compose lyrics and music when she was only fourteen. At this time, she was also singing in a band that played mainly jazz and boss nova songs. She was now getting paid to perform in front of audiences for the first time ever. This, was the beginning of her musical career. When ZoSia was around sixteen or seventeen, she concentrated more on her piano skills and began to play pop and rock music. A couple years later, at the age of nineteen, ZoSia joined a new band where she met Tomek, the drummer, who would be her future husband. They began to compose music together, as well as perform. Eventually they moved to Denmark to promote Zosia's career and they lived there with their three daughters for five years. They returned to Poland, their home country, and now enjoy time with family and friends while pursuing new endeavors. It was on MySpace that Zosia's music came to the attention of Jason Scheff, who is the lead tenor and bass player for the famous American band "Chicago". While touring Europe in 2008, they met with ZoSia and Tomek. Robert Lamm (founding member of Chicago) and Jason Scheff decided to help by becoming Executive Producers for her first CD that was titled "SING". It was released and has quickly grown in popularity in many countries around the world. "SING" is available on iTunes, Amazon.com and many other online retailers.
