Diving into Serel's music is an emotional experience where inner feelings blossom into honest lyrics. 
 Growing up in Turkey, Serel was exposed to a diverse source of musical influence: in a house steeped in the devotion of the mystique of Sufi music, her inquisitive nature was influenced by artists spanning multiple genres; The Doors, Pink Floyd, Nirvana, Bob Dylan, Jimi Hendrix, Édith Piaf and Queen. 
 The premature loss of her father signalled the beginning of a nomadic period. At 17 she moved to Istanbul in search of belonging and artistic direction: an acting role in a television series brought public interest but it also further stretched her fragilities. 
 To reconnect with her true creative freedom, Serel left everything behind. During her healing journey, made of self-discovery and introspection, she learned how to find beauty in extreme darkness. 
 After moving from place to place, Serel settled in the UK, where she uncovered her voice: roots are the place we belong, musically, they are the tonal centre, the perfect harmony. In London, Serel found both.
