Details:
Young singer/songwriter Serena Lauren is set to make her mark in the music world. After 9 years of classical piano lessons, Serena picked up a guitar at age 18 and began composing songs whenever she could. She discovered songwriting was the emotional outlet she had always needed and began pouring herself into the craft, filling notebook after notebook. Two years later, her music has taken to her over 20 different venues, including a spot on the Soundwaves TV Show and a headlining spot in the First Night Stockton Songwriter's Cafe

Serena, whose music is a unique blend of emo, rock and pop, cites some of her biggest influences as Dashboard Confessional, Shakira, Switchoot, Jimmy Eat World, No Doubt, and Howie Day.

Serena spent the summer of 2003 writing and recording "Waking Up" with producer Jack (JT) Trammell at Fat Cat Recording. "Waking Up" contains six energetic songs full of emotional, honest, and fun lyrics that will appeal to teenage and adult audiences.

"SERENA LAUREN is a hot new talent on the Sac music scene. SERENA is a breath of fresh air, great lyrics reflecting the young perspective facing the not so brave old world we have created for her and her peers."

"Young and talented, loaded with emotions, influenced by life, love and broken hearts - Serena Lauren has mastered the art of songwriting, playing music and performing live with bravour. Her charisma, combined with her need to share her feelings, make her a strong on-stage act. Serena's songs are about life, the good and not so good things attached to life and the struggle to find that one person; in and outside yourself."
