About Syd
Syd Caldera is an NYC artist with Oklahoma roots who ping pongs between love of acoustic guitar, 90s drums, and the sickest of bass lines. She frequently records from her bedroom studio in Brooklyn, collaborating often with LA-based producer Jonah Wei-Haas. Hasta La Bye Bye, her 2019 release is a reflection on her process of finding and maintaining serenity and mental health while establishing a life in NYC. Her 2021 release, the What Feels Good EP, was recorded in part at the Beach Hut Recording Studio in Rockaway Park, Queens (RIP), with producer / mixer Ben Deixler, as well as at Ben's home studio, Trudie Studios, and features such artists as Jocelyn MacKenzie (Pearl and the Beard), Aidan Boardman (anguid), and Dylan Awalt-Conley (More Tongues Than Teeth). The EP's four songs each represent Syd's opening up to the world, to people, and to love. Over the course of the shelter-in-place phenomenon of 2020, Syd wrote and produced a song a day in her Brooklyn apartment. From that endeavor emerged a second collaboration with Jonah Wei-Haas, an EP known colloquially as Lofi Seltzer Revolution Sumer. In 2022, Syd will release her premier music video directed by Holle Singer and shot by Shane Sigler. Photographs by Sonya Farrell.
