You guys! I found this really great band out of Denton, called Seryn! And even though they have already played SXSW a few times and been in Paste Magazine and have tons of regional press, when they become huge stars, I am going to totally take credit for discovering them.
Anyway, I kind of have a feeling that they will be huge because when I showed them the Diamond Award in the Ardent Studios‘ lobby (which you get for selling 10 million records) and said that no one will probably ever get one of those again, they were like, “Is that a dare?”
To me, they kind of sound like a cross between Sufjan Stevens, Fleet Foxes and Peter Gabriel, but I am old and weird, so there’s that.
Check out my interview with them as they school me on the difference between a xylophone and a vibraphone and we talk about their upcoming East Coast tour. Plus, of course, they play some music. It’s totally worth 25 minutes of your time! Then go see them TONIGHT at The Hi-Tone!
