How all of this journey started
In 2012, Zooloo embarked on an ambitious project titled "Black Pearls."

Celebrating their courage and resilience, "Black Pearls" takes listeners on a captivating journey through the rich history of blues, highlighting its roots and evolution from Africa to Mississippi.
Zooloo, with her extraordinary talent, wrote almost all the lyrics and co-signed almost every song of this new project which took almost 12 years of making.
At the end of 2023, Zooloo is ready to showcase her full artistic potential with her new songs and her new band: The Seaweed.
The band features the exceptional talents of Bob Corson on guitar, whose electrifying riffs add depth and texture to the music. Pat Culley on bass provides a solid and groovy foundation, while Rick Picard on drums drives the rhythm with his dynamic beats.
Together, Zooloo & The Seaweed promise an album that will be a heritage of blues, a journey from Africa to Mississippi, wrapped in a original sound, strong lyrics and solid music with the refreshing essence of the genre. A solid, explosive and unforgettable musical experience is building between Zooloo & The Seaweeds.
They will definitely bring you with them in this new journey!
