Meet Seda
Born in Tehran, Iran and raised in Armenia, Seda Garibyan’s passion for poetry and music began at a very young age. Upon graduating high school, Seda began receiving voice lessons from Yerevan Conservatory instructor and soloist, Sergei Danielyan. During this time she began singing for the Yerevan Yeritasardakan Palat’s (Youth Palace) choir. Renowned singer Hovhannes Badalyan complimented her voice as being “Ideal for Armenian Folk Music”, and pioneer to Armenian folk music, Hayrik Muradyan also expressed his high regards concerning her singing. With this advice Seda began singing with Gusan Hamazasp's Folk Group. Following Hamazasp’s, several friends and she formed a band with which she sang for four years. This new group allowed Seda to sing both folk and pop songs accompanied with the modern music instruments. In 1989, Seda moved to the United States, and in 1992 she released her first album, "Nazank”. Having excelled in Armenian music, Seda wanted to expand on her performance of modern and pop music and began studying under the talented Bill Keis and Virginia Sayre.
Seda is actively involved with events not only in her local Los Angeles, but all over the United States. She is available for all kinds of performances including live concerts, lounge events, private parties and weddings. Seda is available solo, with a keyboard player, with a four or five piece band, and specific Armenian Folk instruments can be added as well. Seda regularly works with well known Armenian musicians such as Andranik Mouradian, Sargis Garibian, Yeghishe Manukyan and Norik Mouradyan, to name a few.
