Award winning Canadian songstress Serena Ryder is gearing up for her full-length label debut September 15th by touring the US.   The album “is it o.k” - recorded with Grammy Award-winning producer John Alagia (Jason Mraz, Dave Matthews Band, John Mayer) – features the single, “Little Bit of Red” and will be released later this year.  Serena has already garnered much critical acclaim in the states.  USA Weekend named her among its “Faces To Watch In 2008” and Billboard declared her One of Canada’s “Most Promising.”  Her vocal styling and live performances have earned her comparisons to the likes of legends Janis Joplin and Aretha Franklin.  Serena's sound has many different layers, from rock to folk with hints of country and soul.  Her vocal delivery however, is what sets her apart from the crowd.  Serena sings with so much emotion that as a listener you'd be hard-pressed not to feel where she is coming from.  Tour dates, audio and video links are below.  Please take a moment to listen and get to know Serena Ryder at http://www.myspace.com/serenaryder .
