Straub appeared on ORF television series Vorstadtweiber in 2015.[2] She also competed in the Austrian national final for the Eurovision Song Contest 2015, where she eventually placed third with the song "Quel filou", written by Straub herself and her father, Christof Straub.[1][2] She performed live at Rathausplatz while Vienna was serving as the host city of Eurovision Song Contest 2015.[3] In October 2015, she released her début album Debut.[4]

On 12 January 2016, she was announced as one of the participants of the Austrian national final for the Eurovision Song Contest 2016,[5] and on 12 February 2016, she emerged as the winner of the national final and therefore represented Austria in the Eurovision Song Contest 2016 with the song "Loin d'ici" in Stockholm, Sweden;[6][7] qualified for the grand final where she placed 13th in total and 8th in televoting.[8] On 29 April 2016, she released a reissued version of Debut.

In December 2017, it was announced that she would serve as a judge in the Sammarinese national selection event for the Eurovision Song Contest 2018 a national final event she and her family funded, alongside Neon Hitch and Vince Bugg.[9]

ZOË also started her career as an actress: in addition to several series and film appearances, she appeared in the first German Netflix production "Isi und Ossi", as well as the most successful Austrian series of the last 10 years "Vorstadtweiber", among others.

After her last single releases "Tout Paris" and "Rêverie", she released the song "Loin d'ici (far from here)": a new, modern and up-to-date version of the 2016 ESC hit "Loin d'ici", this time with the support of newcomer Leonardo Davi, who enriches the song with English verses.
