    Serena is a Canadian two time Juno award winner who has a 3 octave vocal range and has often been compared to Janis Joplin.
    She is appearing tonight and tomorrow at the Winter Olympics.

    During a 2007 tour to Australia she was a “contestant” and performer on the weekly TV series called Rockwiz.
    It is a very unique show that tests your music knowledge. It is MC’d by a very witty lady named Julie.
    Serena appears with 3 songs on the show( including a duet with an Australian named Lior-song is NEIL’s Heart of Gold with Serena on guitar and harmonica ) and is quizzed on her knowledge of Hank Williams.

    Rockwiz, if you search the site for past performances, you will also find Neko Case and Anne McCue ( an Australian gal who toured with Lucinda in 2002 and also was a special guest last September at the big First Avenue wedding. I believe tntracy met her there.
    Here is the link to Serena’s appearance on Rockwiz. ( very entertaining fast-paced show that you will enjoy )

    Adding one more of Serena’s songs from last year.
    Here she is covering Leonard Cohen’s “Sisters of Mercy”
    Great performance.

    One more Serena cover of Leonard Cohen.
    “Hey. That’s No Way to Say Goodbye” with Adam Cohen-Leonard’s son.

    Have a listen.

    Tntracy posted under Lu General a great read from the Huffington Press entitled “Revealing New Interview w/Lu” on March 15th wherein you can find the link.

    The same article was almost immediately followed by this article “Serena Ryder to spend Spring 2010 on the road”
    It also is a great read on her bio and the many accolades.
    The article outlines her tour schedule as well. Have a read.
    I’m going to see Serena perform next week here in Ontario for the 3rd time.

    And, just for those in the Atlanta area ( i.e. tntracy & Drunken Angel ) spend 12 bucks plus $2.98 in Ticket Alternative fees and see her in mid-town Atlanta at Smith’s Olde Bar on April 27th.

    I guarantee you are in for a good show.
