Serj Tankian is the lead vocalist, songwriter and keyboardist of the metal band System of a Down. He was born in Beirut, Lebanon on August 21, 1967, but at the age of five he moved to LA, USA with his parents. That's where he met his future bandmates Daron and Shavo. Their first band was called Soil, but the group split up and later they formed SOAD (originally with Andy). When the band announced a hiatus, Serj began a solo career and released a few albums: Elect the Dead, Imperfect Harmonies, Harakiri and Orca Symphonies No. 1.
Right now, Serj is married to Angela Madatyan, his long-time girlfriend. He is also an environmentalist and is passionate about protecting animals and human rights. |
