Up and coming local singer-songwriter Zoey Campbell blends resonant vocals with spare but affecting arrangements on her self-released three-song demo—now streaming at soundcloud.com/zoeyalise. It’s a promising collection of mellow, soulful indie-folk, which belies her youth (the San Jose native is just 19) and hints at a strong debut yet to come. On standout track “What Is It, Gotta Be True,” Campbell’s smoky, sultry melody fuses effortlessly with a slow-stomping backing track and a wandering bass. She recently played the SoFA Street Fair and she will perform at the SoFA Market on April 26 before this April 27 show in Cupertino. (NV)
