BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
Born in Canada, Serena Ryder got her start penning songs at 11, drawing inspiration from legends like Leonard Cohen and the Beatles and learning to play guitar a few years later. Before long she was sharing her music with the local community, performing at local gigs in the Quebec arts community and singing alongside bands Three Days Grace and Thousand Foot Krutch. She scored her first record deal at just 18, leading to her major label debut in 2005 with Unlikely Emergency. With eight Juno Awards, a number of Top 10 hits, and several gold and platinum-certified records under her belt, Ryder has definitely made a name for herself in her native Canada. Back on the road, she gives ticket buyers plenty to look forward to as she heads out for an exciting Canadian tour.
