Musical Style
Zoot Woman's main genres are electronica, alternative rock and synthpop. Heavy use of both digital and analogue synthesizers is evident on each album. They are known to blend the use of acoustic and electronic instruments to create their sound. This is apparent in the way the group perform the songs live.
Many Zoot Woman songs are characterised by lead vocalist Johnny Blake’s voice. Blake supports his vocal with a very rhythmic guitar playing style. For live performances he favours the Fender Telecaster and Gibson SG guitars.
Zoot Woman cite the bands Kraftwerk, Depeche Mode, Steely Dan & The Police among their influences.
In an interview with Universal Audio, Adam Blake discusses some of the group's recording techniques.
