Thanks for checking out my EPK!
PRESS BIO:
Sydney Wright has been writing songs for over a decade. While her huge voice often gets her compared to pop darlings like Sara Bareilles, there’s a darker, more experimental edge to her work. Drawing heavily from hip-hop rhythms, with loops of piano, guitar, beatbox, and doo-wops, Wright creates a sonically complex, live-looping, one-woman show all her own.
With bandmates, performances can range from duo to quartet performing an amalgamation of live-loops and full arrangements that allude her studio-produced releases.
When she's not on stage, Wright is behind the console mixing performances as a live sound engineer. Her mastery of the physics of sound is apparent in her self-production onstage and in the studio.
Wright’s musical influences cover a wide variety of pop; over the years writing music, she took inspiration from Carole King, early Coldplay, Miranda Lambert and Ed Sheeran.
Wright grew up in Snyder, Texas, a tiny town in the West Texas panhandle, in a family where music was not only encouraged, but also taught. Wright and her sisters learned how to read sheet music and took piano lessons before they could even reach the pedals. Wright’s father would pull out an old Gibson and play Bluegrass oldies he had learned as a kid.
After picking up the guitar at age 15, Wright quickly found herself writing music and collaborating with recently heartbroken high school friends on breakup songs. Finding that creating songs was a way to connect with people that made her feel useful and heard, Wright left home to study music and live sound, and to continue crafting songs - some of which would end up on her debut album years down the road.
“‘Seiche’ is about transcendence,” says Wright about the album and track title. “It’s a French word that means ‘to sway back and forth.’ It’s used by hydrologists to refer to a surfing wave on a lake, which should never happen unless a violent pressure change or seismic activity occurs, and the water has to slosh back and forth to get back to equilibrium.”
Seiche was released on all streaming platforms in November, 2018
“Sydney Wright’s debut full-length amounts to a greatest-hits-so-far for the Austin pop polymath, whose lush, layered compositions are hallmarked by slow-burning verses erupting into gargantuan hooks.”
— Kevin Curtin, 'Seiche' Album Premeire, Austin Chronicle, Nov 2018
