Sera Eclipsed is a Buffalo, New York-based 6-piece embracing an eclectic melange of influences and sounds. Influences range anywhere between Radiohead and Skinny Puppy and encompass classic rock and vintage Buffalo indie-rock along the way. As for sounds: effects and tone modules abound but always blend melodically.
Why this name?
The band name was more or less arbitrary and proferred by Mr. Ed Lover. It does bear repeating, though, that there is no "Sara" or "Sera" in the band.
Do you play live?
We play out live in Buffalo, NY on a semi-frequent basis. We're trying to keep the On Tour section updated so check back often for upcoming shows.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
MP3 itself has certainly terraformed the internet music-serving and -sharing arenas; but the technology itself is only the means of delivery. It's sites like SoundClick.com and its ilk that actually define the community of independent music distribution. This is definitely the most efficacious means to level the playing field of music promotion and distribution. But, don't forget also about Ogg Vorbis music compression technology.
Band History:
Sera Eclipsed came into existence based on an idea by Paul to create a new project with a sound unique to, at least, the Buffalo scene. Blending a desire to experiment sonically, musically and conceptually, a group was brought together based on reputation or previous personal experience.





Fortunately-- through the miracle of modern technology-- words needn't describe the result of this meeting. There are 2 full .mp3 songs available for listening and/or download on the Music page. Enjoy.
