Syren are an all female Alternative/Rock trio that hails from the USA and UK and is made up of members Erin Bennett (Guitars/Vocals,) Amanda Smith-Skinner (Fretless Bass, Electric Upright)and Jo Heeley (Drums, Percussion, Backing Vocals).

In 2006 Syren erupted into the United States' underground music scene playing some of America's top rock venues and impressing audiences with their powerful songs, addictive melodies and unbelievable musicianship. Demand of the band's original music and confident performance led Syren from Detroit to Cleveland all the way to Panama City and kept them playing live shows 5 days a week all over the country. Because of this demand Syren developed a reputation in the Mid-West ,USA of being one of the only unsigned band's around to make a living purely off of their music.

In 2008, after two years of hard work and non-stop gigging, Syren were offered sponsorship from companies such as Hartke Amplification, Rain Song Graphite Guitars and Danmar Percussion. This recognition in the music world called for them to finally record their debut album,'Dehumanized.' The album, made up of 13 original tracks, was recorded in Detroit by John Brandt at Song Garden Studios and immediately began collecting rave reviews in music press.

After the release of 'Dehumanized' in February 2008, Syren were offered a tour of the United Kingdom and The Netherlands to promote the album. After the 'Dehumanized Album' tour ended in September, Syren continued playing with a non-stop show schedule, all the while growing as musicians and maturing as songwriters. This hard working principle caught the eye of 60s Rock band, Hawkwind who offered Syren two consecutive support slots on their Winter 2008 Tour.

Throughout 2009, Syren continued playing shows both in the UK and The Netherlands, broadening their fan base and honing their skills. Their efforts were noticed by Dordrecht's 'Dordtenaar Newspaper' when Syren stole the spotlight in Dordrecht's Big Rivers '09 Festival. From this more opportunities for the band in The Netherlands started to spring forward and the success caused the band to uproot from England and base themselves in Noord Holland.

After relocating to The Netherlands in 2010 Syren set to work on their 2nd studio album in between weekly live shows and radio performances.
The album titled, 'Something Has To Separate' was recorded at Nemesis Studios, Den Helder and was engineered by Syren and Petrus Ramdayal (owner.)
After initial recording was finished at Nemesis, Syren decided to finish their last few gigs and take some much needed time off.
In 2011 Syren returned to the UK where they set up their own Sapphic Studios and began final production for the album. Now in mixing stages and on the verge of the release of their new album, Syren look forward to a new year in 2012.
