L.A. based Country & Americana artist, Serafia proves that the Wild West is here to stay and the Roots of American music is still the foundation. Towering at 6’3” in boots, Serafia (pronounced sah-RAH-fee-yah) brilliantly fuses the intricacies of americana, blues, folk, country, and gospel into her unique musical sound. Vocally, her distinctive rich texture and surgical delivery, plus 4 octave range, give her an unmistakable and chill inducing sound. Born in a small town in Northern Iowa, Serafia was adopted at birth and at age 3, her father a preacher, her mother Filipino scientist, and her fellow adopted Korean brother, moved out West to a small rural community outside the famous farm & rodeo town of Salinas, Ca Serafia credits her multi ethnic upbringing to her ability to connect with people from all walks of life. Considered a vocal prodigy as a child by her music teachers, Serafia had perfect pitch & an ear for music that spanned far beyond her youth. In her late teens, she moved to Austin, Texas and began her career as a musician & worked many odds jobs to keep herself afloat including back up singing for The Chainsmokers, a Bud Light and Jager girl and illegal poker waitress. Serafia is a 2024 grant recipient of Rissi Palmer's Color Me Country Grant Fund supporting country artists of color all over the US.
