Xoch ‘The One’ (Ripper Mojo Music) Is Xoch
really the one? Well she certainly has all the right credentials to be
taken pretty The duo started out in Hudson Valley, New York’s The Fuzzies and recorded their debut EP with John Regan (Peter Frampton, Ace Frehley) and erstwhile Kiss producer Eddie Kramer involved. The title track, ‘My Desire’ and ‘You’ really should find Xoch on the same level as Avril Lavigne and Pink in terms of popularity. Yes, she’s that good. Actually, vocally, rather better! ‘The One’ is perfect for heavy rotation on MTV and The Box. Why she hasn’t been picked up by anyone before now is probably as much a mystery as her real name! For those with more melodic tastes, the semi-AOR of ‘Let Me In’, ‘Invisible People’ and ‘Faith’ will surely please, but Xoch’s future lies with the more contemporary nature of her best material that may crown her queen of the nu-breed yet!

great deal of interest in her vocal talents and songwriting partnership
with long-time guitarist Vince Ripper.
