Zhou lost his sight at age 9. He began to play guitar when he was 15. Leading a vagrant life from 24, his experiences on the street later found their way into Zhou's music.

Without the ability to see, Zhou interprets the world and people around him through his ears. This special relationship with the outside world allows Zhou to have a stronger and deeper impact on those he can't see.

Zhou was praised as a "poet-musician", and his song Speechless Love, won the 2011 People's Literature Award, an important literature prize in 皇冠体育app.
