Sybris on Myspace

Formed in 2003 around the talents of Angela Mullenhour (lead vocals), Eric Mahle (drums), Phil Naumann (guitar), and Shaun Podgurski (bass/vocals), Chicago-based indie rock quartet Sybris released their eponymous debut on the Flameshovel label in August 2005 to both critical and commercial acclaim. Sybris' blend of melodic mid-'90s alternative rock and angular lo-fi/experimental pop landed them on Absolutely Kosher for their 2008 sophomore release, Into the Trees.
