ZoSia Karbowiak was born Zosia Zalewska in Poland. Although she never had formal musical training, she clearly showed an aptitude at a young age and began singing, playing piano and learning percussion. During her early years she became immersed in classical compositions that would later serve her well. In high school, with the absence of any formal lessons being available to her, she began to develop her skills composing music and lyrics as a young teenager on her own. She was performing  at that time, primarily bossa nova and jazz for live audiences. 

When ZoSia was sixteen her interest in the piano re-surfaced and she was now concentrating on more pop and rock music. At nineteen she joined a new band where she met her future husband, drummer, Tomek Karbowiak. As well as performing, they began collaborating on new songs and material. After their marriage, three children, a move to Denmark that would last 5 years, playing countless shows, they returned to Poland but continued to commute to Denmark on a regular basis to perform. 

ZoSia's talent during this time expanded internationally when her music was discovered by Jason Scheff, lead tenor and bass player for the Rock Band Chicago. During their tour of Europe in 2008, Scheff along with Robert Lamm founding member of Chicago, met with ZoSia and Tomek and agreed to be the Executive Producers of her Solo CD S.I.N.G.

All three of these songs rose to the top of the Chart on Polish State Radio.  "Living Proof" available @ http://robertlammsolo.com/project/living-proof

These teens were in "Prestiz Magazine" in June 2014. Later in 2015, she celebrated her 20 years of music at a Jubilee in Poland.
