Real name: Joanne Accom

Effective period / Period of releases: 1998

"B.Z." is actually Joanne (2). Her record company decided it would be more marketable to release "Jackie" as "B.Z. featuring Joanne" (they were right as it turns out, "Jackie" became a huge hit).

"B.Z." is apparently derived from Blue Zone (4), the group that originally released "Jackie" in 1988.

(Joanne's second single was also released as "B.Z. featuring Joanne"; while on her third single she was credited as "Joanne B.Z." then dropped the "B.Z." entirely....)
