History

[edit]

Sybris formed in 2003 in Chicago.[1] The name is an intentional misspelling of Sybaris, an Ancient Greek city.[2] They signed to Flameshovel Records for the release of their 2005 self-titled debut.[3][4] A national tour followed the album's release.[5] Their second full-length appeared on Absolutely Kosher in 2008.

In 2009 Sybris's song "Breathe Like You're Dancing" was used in the Movie "According to Greta" starring Hilary Duff.
