Zolita

1 upcoming festival

Cinematic sapphic pop — music videos with lore, hooks with teeth, a whole universe per single.

Zolita is the stage name of Zoe Hoetzel, an American singer, songwriter and director based in Los Angeles. She emerged in the mid-2010s and has written openly about queer relationships from the start of her career, with much of her audience built through video work released online.

Her songs are pop-structured with dark, dramatic production, and she is best known for the narrative music videos she conceives and directs herself, often linked into continuing storylines across multiple releases. Those videos, several of which have circulated widely on social platforms, are as central to the project as the recordings.
