Fresh Asian American talents behind the band Seriously… these talents come in the form of four young men all hailing from Diamond Bar, California. Members Philip Park, Chris Pham, Josh Baek, and Nathan Park all attended the same church at one point and started the band as more of a collaboration group.
Eventually in 2006 they came together to compete in LA’s premier Asian American talent show, Kollaboration where they won the Grand Prize with their song, Irony. Since their winning performance at Kollaboration, they were signed by Woody Pak, CEO/ producer of Chaos Theory Music and artist manager, Gloria Lee, to record an EP showing off their talent for melancholy yet fresh songwriting. Seriously’s music blends hints of KPop , Brit-pop and American rock & roll.
This indie quartet reminds me so much of classic Beatles, in the way that their music is effortlessly soulful and relatable at the same time. Once you listen to a few tracks off their self titled debut album, it reminds you of the giddiness of first loves, highschool dramatics, and alot more… Its music thats absolutely free of pretentions, and in the end you just get the sheer honesty of their songs.
Their self titled debut EP can be found here.
