Seryn
Home: Denton, Texas
Hailing from one of the most artistically creative music communities (“Best Music Scene of '08” -Paste Magazine) around, Seryn calls Denton, Texas home. That may not surprise many, but it is no mistake by any means. Call it fate if you want, it is obvious the stars aligned to bring this group of young musicians together.
Seryn, having only played together since March of '09, have created something truly special in their short existence. Using a variety of instruments including guitar, ukulele, kalimba, accordion, bass, drums, viola, percussion and more, Seryn’s understanding of dynamics shines brightly and has earned them a sound that is not easily defined, but proven triumphant.
"This Denton outfit is one of the buzziest bands in the region. Thanks to folk-flecked compositions and powerful harmonies, Seryn is fast becoming a must-see." - Fort Worth Star-Telegram
Like ice-cold water on a hot day, their music is crisp and refreshing, and I cannot get enough. The imagery packed into their set is unreal. It’s like listening to the soundtrack of a great love story, breathtaking drama, and a dark tragedy all rolled into one over-the-top, unparalleled performance. It is big and beautiful… - My Denton Music
Seryn plays hopeful baroque folk-pop allowing their voices an equally important role as their instrumentation. One part beautiful vocal harmonies that whisper at times and shout choral anthems the next, and one part progressive rock that quickly transcends from quiet, acoustic ukulele strums to an intense drum-line style wall of noise.
Beautiful arrangements (both in instrumentation and in vocal harmonies) and an epic, "big sky" sound that, at times, seems more fitting washing over dilapidated wooden pews in an old church than the usual torn-up couches, vinyl booths and barstools of area venues. - Dallas Observer
"One of Denton’s hottest bands in any genre...help create the city’s well-deserved buzz...on the verge of big things in 2010."- Preston Jones, FW Star-Telegram
Dallas Observer’s Top 40 Local Songs of 2009:
# 18 Seryn’s “We Will All Be Changed”
Nowhere else is this baby band's promise more evident than in its rousing anthem, "We Will All Be Changed." It's clear enough from first listen that the musicianship and songwriting prowess is there with this new act… This exhilarating first impression serves too as a fine introduction to a band well worth keeping tabs on as it continues to grow, gaining both experience and exposure in the process. - Dallas Observer
I don't know how many times I caught myself just staring in awe at Seryn. Not taking pictures, or making subtle observations, just staring blankly at the wonderfulness on display. Seryn's sound is something beautiful. - MyDentonMusic.com
