But the<br \/>emergence of the fast-rising Serosia proves this assumption to be a thing of the<br \/>past, as their latest release, &#8216;Variables,&#8217; challenges the listener, delivering<br \/>a hard rock punch with expert melodicism. Stand out tracks such as &#8220;Friendly<br \/>Fire,&#8221; &#8220;The Architect,&#8221; and &#8220;Superposition,&#8221; are evidence of Serosia&#8217;s powerful<br \/>yet eloquent style.  <!--more-->  <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The best way to describe our sound is expressive and meaningful,&#8221; explains the<br \/>group&#8217;s singer, Lucas D&#8217;Agata. &#8220;We are not a love song band, nor do we care<br \/>about how hard you can party or how many chicks you think you can score.<br \/>Musically, we are aggressive yet delicate, with a strong sense of detail and<br \/>vision.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In addition to D&#8217;Agata, Serosia is comprised of members Derek Troxell &#8211; guitars,<br \/>Joseph Kuban &#8211; bass, and Anthony D&#8217;Agata &#8211; drums, and hail from Dallas, Texas.<br \/>And as far as the band&#8217;s uncommon name, D&#8217;Agata explains it as &#8220;We were looking<br \/>to create a word, rather than use something already in existence. It seemed to<br \/>fit the original and organic feel of the music better that way. After a bit of<br \/>branstorming, Derek concocted SEROSIA.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>And the quartet succeeds in translating their far-reaching sound from the studio<br \/>to the stage, as D&#8217;Agata promises &#8220;An actual show! Not just four dudes standing<br \/>around playing meaningless repeated choruses, wearing all the newest fashion<br \/>crazes. The end result\/payoff of all of our efforts is the live show. We are<br \/>intense and REAL. No choreographed stage moves, just us letting the music speak<br \/>through our bodies. If there was a single word that could describe a Serosia<br \/>show it would be, ENERGY.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Lastly, upcoming dates with Sevendust are sure to expand Serosia&#8217;s fanbase even<br \/>further. &#8220;We are honored for the opportunity to tour with not only such a well<br \/>established national act. Sevendust is a band that we all genuinely enjoy and<br \/>admire,&#8221; says the band.\u00a0 &#8220;For us, this tour is a stepping stone for Serosia to<br \/>be exposed to a much broader audience and to display our vision of the future of<br \/>rock music. We are looking forward to connecting with all the fans along the<br \/>way.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Tour dates with Sevendust:<\/p>\n<p>Wed\/Sep-18\u00a0 Las Vegas, NV\u00a0 Hard Rock Live<\/p>\n<p>Thu\/Sep-19\u00a0 Salt Lake City, UT\u00a0 In The Venue<br \/>Fri\/Sep-20\u00a0 Billings, MT\u00a0 Babcock Theatre<br \/>Mon\/Sep-23\u00a0 Ft.
