Zenîma is an Italian singer and songwriter born in born on 1969 in Viersen, Germany.
Twelve long years have passed since her symphonic debut with "Butterfly-Mad Kate" (1995) [from the illustration for Cowper's "The Task" (1785) by Henry Füssli (1806-1807)], where powerful, almost violent, vocals that recall Beth Gibbons mingled with a surprising sweetness.
Twelve years have passed but only in ordinary time... *The Sphinx-Girl from the North* is back, closing distances and advancing the new. In her splendid vocal timbre, many have heard a likeness with Kate Bush and Stina Nordenstam, and in her expressiveness, someone with a strong inner instinct for personal regeneration and conservation. Zenîma in less than a year has become one of the most popular Indie artists on MySpace.
Zenîma is back, offering us the keys to enter the unexpected and irregular topography of her high sound coefficient universe... à bout de souffle.
