Dear Saybians
First of all we’d like to take the opportunity to thank you all for a great summer of festivals. The seasons are now changing and this means a number of things: The temperature’s dropping, the long, bright days are disappearing fast and Saybia’s hitting the road for the Autumn Tour.
It is now 7 years ago that Chapter One of the Saybia Adventure began with the signing of an EMI record deal and the release of our first EP. Since then we have released three albums and had a multitude of fabulous adventures on the road. Music has taken us to places all over the world; we’ve criss-crossed Denmark, played in Norway, Sweden, Finland, The Faroe Islands, Greenland, Germany, The Netherlands, Belgium, England, Ireland, Spain, France, Italy, Switzerland, Austria, Canada, the US, Japan and China. It has been an epic rock adventure with all that this entails.
We now feel we’ve reached the end of the Second Chapter in our Saybia book and that, in order to write Chapter Three, we will need to put the book away for a period of time and turn our attention to other things. In other words: This will be our last tour for a little while. This break will do the band good and give us the strength to return even stronger when the time is ready.
We owe all of you a large and massive thank you for all of your support during the past seven years and we are very much looking forward to seeing you all out there to do what we do best: Taking you all on another journey into our musical universe.
Eyes on the highway on TJEKLISTEN
New single - Eyes On The Highway
The 3rd radiosingle off the "Eyes On The Highway" album has just been shipped out to all of the radiostations, and this time it's the titletrack (EOTH) that has been chosen to represent the album, the song is described by the band as the perfect soundtrack for a cruise in a VW-bus on a hot summers day, in contrast to the lyrics that is about the feeling of being a passenger in a car going way too fast, not knowing where you are going, and getting no answers when asking the man behind the wheel.

A Saybian Symphony
The concert at the Tivoli Gardens on June 27th will be yet another milestone in the musical career of SAYBIA, as the band will be joined on stage by a stringsection of 22 members from the highly acclaimed Tivoli Symphony Orchestra.
The Tivoli Gardens itself dates al the way back to 1843, and is said to have been the inspiration of the Danish poet H. C. Andersen's fairytale "The Nightingale". Don't miss out on this very special outdoor show right in the heart of Copenhagen.

A message from SAYBIA
Due to recent events, the upcoming show at Uken in Norway has been cancelled. Sørens daughter Ronja is doing well and is recovering fast, but we all still need some more time before we can move on.
No further shows has been cancelled, and Saybia will continue making music and touring later this year. Thanks for all your support during the last month.

Dear Saybians or curious guest!
Welcome to our new site.
As a result of us not being very generous with leaking information concerning our whereabouts, we have decided to invite you all inside our house and music-lab, located south of Copenhagen, Denmark.
There is a clear blue sky above the roof of the studio, and the sun illuminates our minds as our third album is coming to life.
We promise it will be worth waiting for!
Love and Respect
SAYBIA
