SURL at Elysium
SURL is a four-member K-indie rock band that offers a refreshing take on the genre’s typical style. They are recognized both in Korea and overseas for their catchy lyrics, unique vocals, and imaginative music videos. The band's line-up is composed of vocalist/guitarist Seol Hoseung, bassist Lee Hanbin, drummer Oh Myeongsuk, and guitarist Kim Doyeon.
SURL debuted in 2018 with the song "Stay Here" as a part of the compilation album [bright #7]. Gaining attention after a series of awards at large-scale music competitions, SURL became one of the most anticipated new bands in Korea. Within a year after their debut, SURL was quickly catapulted into the global music scene performing at music festivals in Germany(Reeperbahn Festival), Taiwan(LUCfest), Thailand(Big Mountain Music Festival), and conducting solo concerts in Japan and Thailand.
Following the success, SURL released their third single [Ferris Wheel] and fourth single [Don't Say No] in 2020, proving there are no boundaries to their music through collaboration with Korean hip-hop musicians such as Jay Park and Hash Swan.
