“’It Ain’t Love’ gives us an overall look at the signatures that Zoee brings to the table with very solid lyrics, a vocal ability that sees her utilizing the entire range of her voice to hit the emotional highs and lows, and a sound that throws it back to the powerhouse vocal era of 90’s country, but she perfectly stays steeped in the here and now.” – Jeffery Kurtis, Today’s Country Magazine
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Nashville-based award-winning country artist, Zoee, has released her latest single “It Ain’t Love.” The song is available at major digital retailers. Watch the lyric video here.
“The idea for ‘It Ain’t Love’ came about after my boyfriend, and I broke up,” Zoee says. “I thought I could put it behind me, dust myself off and move on. But after some time passed, I realized it was much more than I thought it was and the feelings along with the song idea caught up with me. ‘It ain’t love… if it doesn’t hurt.’”
“Thought that we could just walk away
Take our hearts and leave unscathed
Never look back from wherever we were at
As we made our escapes
Then it hit me like a ton of bricks
This ain’t a crush a goodbye can fix
Cause when you’ve fallen down and your knees hit the ground
You’ll know what you missed
You can dust off the dirt
But it ain’t love, if it doesn’t hurt”
Recently relocated to Nashville from the UK, Zoee originally hails from Australia. Since her move, she hasn’t wasted any time in growing her burgeoning career in Music City. “I have dreamed about writing songs and recording in Nashville all my life,” she states. “Now to be here working with some of the best songwriters and artists in the world is a dream come true.”
“It Ain’t Love” was co-written and co-produced by Zoee along with GRAMMY and CMA nominated songwriter/producer, James House. The track features Zoee on lead and backing vocals and acoustic guitars, James House on piano, acoustic guitar, electric guitar, and background vocals, Kenny Greenburg on electric guitars, Mike Brignardello on bass guitar and Crash Jones on drums. It was recorded at the Cabin in the Woods Studios in Nashville and mastered by Randy Merrill at Sterling Sound, in Edgewater, New Jersey.
House adds, “Zoee has a beautiful story and a unique way of expressing herself through her music and lyrics. She has a voice of her own that connects in way that true authentic artists always do. I’m looking forward to hearing her music unfold over time and watch her grow.”
Zoee’s previous single, “Take Me Away,” won “Song of the Year” at the Women of Country 2021 Awards.
