Bio
.. Singer-songwriter, Gypsy with her 5-piece band "The Merry Mystics" create a unique sound of folk, pop and rock stemming from Gypsy's rich musical upbringing of Americana roots music. Her songs channel her deep life experiences through poetic lyrics and lilting, beautiful vocals. Growing up in a musical family, Gypsy wrote her first song at the age of five after hearing many of Mom and Dad's living room "jam sessions" with the likes of Tag Lambert (lead guitarist for Bob Wills), and others. Gypsy was inspired to pursue the life of a musical artist after hearing her Mom's recordings on the local country stations in Arizona. Also, Gypsy's uncle Don Rollins wrote the smash hit, "The Race Is On" recorded by George Jones, Ricky Nelson and The Grateful Dead. Writing is in her blood and deep in her heart. .. .. After attending ASU majoring in theatre arts, Gypsy was accepted into The National Shakespeare Conservatory in New York. She then moved to Greenwich Village and began singing at local clubs and open mics, then moved to L.A. to pursue a career in music and film. She continued to write and record songs, and eventually joined the pop trio, Angels of Ecstasy with Kelly Sullivan and Astrid Plane (formerly of Animotion). She and Kelly went on to form Zuzu's Petalz, performing their music in LA clubs. Shortly thereafter, Gypsy went solo. .. .. Gypsy's has recently released her 2nd album entitled "There's Still Hope". That and her debut album, "Heart of a Traveling Wind" are flavored with the guest performances of many talented musicians, including Ed Tree (Spencer Davis), Martyn LeNoble (Jane's Addiction), Tony Sales (David Bowie), Rick Shlosser (Van Morrison) and David Palmer (Rod Stewart). Also, Gypsy has performed with Juan Nelson of Ben Harper & The Innocent Criminals. Gypsy's influences include Joni Mitchell, Van Morrison, Loreena McKennett, Jewel, Marley and others. .. .. ..
