Zeztra

Alternative // EastWall, Dublin

Dublin born singer/songwriters Avril and Lorna Meade form the powerful sister duo Zeztra. Their unique
captivating harmonies are the driving force behind their sound. They most recently opened up for Damien
Dempsey in Vicar Street Dec 2022 and have graced the stage of the renowned Ruby Sessions numerous
times over the past year.

Of course, being sisters, they have been singing and creating music together from a very young age, but
it was only in 2019 that Zeztra formed. Opening for Maverick Sabre in the Academy Dublin 2019 is where
it all started to happen for Zeztra. From there, they went to tour around the UK and US performing on
several of his shows including the classic venues ‘Brixton Academy’ London and ‘Rough Trade’ Brooklyn,
New York. Working and writing together as sisters has allowed them to draw inspiration from different
genres and come together to write lyrics that are inspired from both their lives.

Zeztra honed their craft over the lockdown period, writing and recording new music inspired by a blend of different genres including pop, alt, rock, RnB and Latin music. They have created a collection of timeless
ballads sung with blood harmonies, meaningful lyrics, uplifting and hopeful instrumentation. Zeztra’ s
collaboration together has allowed them to experiment and use their voice as an instrument in their music.
2024 will see the release of an EP and lots more exciting things for Zeztra.
