For Immediate Release Statement Recognizing Serena Ryder “It gives me great pleasure to tell you today that the new face and the future of Canadian music comes from none other than the wonderful town of Millbrook in my riding of Haliburton–Kawartha Lakes–Brock. This weekend in Calgary, Ontario singer-song writer Serena Ryder was recognized as the Juno Awards recipient in the category of Best New Artist. Ms. Ryder grew up in the heart of farming country, near Millbrook, and she gives credit to that small town community for much of her inspiration. She began performing there at the age of seven. Even though she is now only in her mid-20s, she has firmly planted her foot in both the Canadian and international music scene. She has worked with names of other famous Canadians such as Frank Davies and the Guess Who’s Randy Bachman. Serena Ryder is recognized for her musical creativity, her incredible and haunting voice, along with the warmth and wisdom of her lyrics. USA Today has stated that, Serena Ryder is, “An important fixture on the music scene.” There’s a saying that I’ve heard a few times, which is, “If this is the first time you’ve heard Serena Ryder, take note because it most certainly won’t be the last.” I certainly, agree. This musician, Serena Ryder, had engrained in her the spirit of rural Ontario and a passion for her craft. As the member of provincial Parliament for the riding of Haliburton–Kawartha Lakes–Brock, I am pleased to extend my heartfelt congratulations to the pride of Millbrook, Ontario, Serena Ryder, for winning the 2008 Juno Award for the best new artist.” -30- For more information contact:
