Best left alone when it comes to pigeonholing Seraya’s musical style has no apparent audible boundaries. Amongst her skilful marriage of genres, listeners are treated to a whole lot of soul, passion and fun. Sitting just as comfortably inside a belting rock number as she does within a moody Tori Amos-esque piece, Seraya feels her music is very much an organic and spontaneous thing with little thought for categories.

Inspiration is plentiful for Seraya, who believes, "We are influenced in one way or another by everything that we ever hear".
