[edit] Disestablishment
On September 2006, by means of their now-defunct ZOEgirl fan club site, the group announced that they would quit recording music as a group so that members could tend to their personal objectives:
- Chrissy Conway had a baby (Haylee Raine Katina), and was writing and recording for a solo album titled Beautiful Redemption. Although this album was supposed to be released in February 2008, she instead formed a group called ColemanBlue.
- Alisa Childers has released her own self-titled album on December 1st, 2007. [2]
- Kristin Swinford-Schweain gave birth to a baby named Stella Rose Elisabeth Schweain[3] on February 13th, 2007. She is currently recording songs for her upcoming album "Days of Eden"
