Zoho Music

In 2005, the label expanded to blues, R&B, Southern and classic rock on the Zoho Roots imprint. The catalog consists of over 180 CD releases, which includes three Grammy Award-winning albums and three Latin Grammy Award-winning albums.

German-born Joachim Becker moved to the United States in 1980, eventually settling in Millwood, New York in 1986. In 2000, Becker co-founded the label Khaeon, which lasted for three years before it was folded. In September 2003, Becker founded Zoho Music, bringing some artists from Khaeon. His first signing was American jazz bassist Harvie S. The last album by Puerto Rican percussionist and bandleader Ray Barretto, Standards Rican-ditioned, was posthumously on Zoho Music before his death in 2006.

In 2005, the label received its first Recording Academy award, a Latin Grammy award for Best Tango Album, awarded to Bajo Cero by Argentine pianist Pablo Ziegler. Since then two more released have won awards, Leo Brouwer's The String Quartets/String Trio for Best Classical Album in 2010, and Arturo O'Farrill's Final Night at Birdland for Best Instrumental Album in 2014.

In 2007, blues musician Ike Turner won a Grammy Award for Best Traditional Blues Album for his Zoho Roots release Risin' with the Blues. Arturo O'Farrill won a Grammy for Best Latin Jazz Album in 2009 for his album Song for Chico. Pablo Ziegler's album Jazz Tango won for Best Latin Jazz Album in 2018.
