ZÖJ will be releasing their sophomore album "GIVE WATER TO BIRDS" on June 20th, seeing Gelareh Pour and Brian O'Dwyer collaborating with guitarist Brett Langsford.
"Give Water to Birds" is a testament to quiet resilience and poetic stillness — a deeply introspective work where ancient echoes meet contemporary textures. It's music that lingers long after the last note, tenderly unearthing emotion with every listen.

Welcome ZÖJ
