Some News!!

5/16/2007
I know.. we have been very remiss in our duties as newscasters on the web site. This is not because nothing has been happening; it's because so much is happening that we can't keep up!

So.. as of June 1st, you will hopefully start hearing, "Beneath The Covers: A Rediscovery" on a radio station near you. Actually, some of you may already be hearing it as it has already been added to many stations around the country.

We also finally signed off on the album release date for South Africa and that will be released any day soon. There is even talk of a tour there this year... Watch this space.

See below for the link to a great review we just received in The New Age Reporter:

Happy Thanksgiving! It is good to be alive....

11/23/2006
Grateful beyond words! On 11/12 Roman,myself and our two friends were in a serious auto accident. A tree fell on top of our Volvo while we were driving. It is a miracle that we all walked out away and with not worse injuries. Roman's staples and stitches came out a few days ago and although he will have a few roguish scars, he is as handsome as ever! Everyone else is doing well and counting our blessings more than ever. Did we mention we were in a Volvo!

In addition to just being so damn grateful we are thrilled to announce a few lovely things going on:

1) We just signed one of many foreign licensing deals with S. African company, Next!

2) Lovin' Me is a finalist in the Independent Music Awards. Winners announced 1/07

3) GS will be showcasing for ASCAP at Folk Alliance and for PEN Music Group at MIDEM in France in early 07.

4) Our latest CD, BTC:AR is featured on CelticRadio.net....click here http://celticradio.net/php/featured_albums.php

BENEATH THE COVERS FEATURED ON CD BABY....

I love your "Beneath The Covers" CD so much I'm going to feature it on the FRONT PAGE of CD Baby for a few days. We're REALLY picky about what goes on the front page.  We get about 75 new albums a DAY coming in here now, (about 30,000 total), and yours is one of the best I've ever heard.

POSTING DATE:  Thursday, February 3rd

OUR REVIEW:  
Magic comes in many forms- sometimes with a flash and a bang,sometimes with a whisper. Gypsy Soul comes with the latter. Vocals that simultaneously evoke Paula Cole, Sarah McLachlan and Alison Krauss, this is a gorgeous mix of rich female folk pop, jazz and touches of bluegrass. You can always count on the warm ringing of the guitar and the instantly-engaging vocals that bring you right into the center of the song, as if you're being privately serenaded, as if each song is about you and your life. There is a simplicity about "Beneath the Covers" that boils down to a graceful, elegant, humble and organic approach. This is highly-enriched folk that nourishes the dried up gardens of the soul.

FEBRUARY 12th ASHLAND VALENTINE'S CONCERT HAS BEEN POSTPONED UNTIL APRIL 17th, DUE TO OUR OUT OF STATE MOVE. We are off to Seattle on 2/7/05 and are so sorry to have to postpone this show.

We are so excited to tell you that we have finally finished our latest CD, called Beneath the Covers. It will be available around Thanksgiving. Call 888-2-GET-SOUL to order. This is our first cover song CD and it was created to pay homage to some of the great artists/songwriters who've inspired us along the way. The songs include: Blackbird, Still Water, Sailing (Rod's version), Still haven't Found What I'm Looking For, Don't Give Up, Landslide, Superstion, Country Roads and a surprise at the end. Looking forward to your thoughts!



10/26/2004
See the latest review on msnbc.com...this was from the cover story which Mark Saal did on Gypsy Soul for our recent concert date in Ogden, UT. He even interviewed Sandy Eborn on why she chose to take on such a huge project as promoting a big concert for us. If the link doesn't work here go the chat board and look under "Wind Blows Gypsy Soul into Ogden". Great article. Not one misquote......pretty rare indeed. Mark you are the man!!! Thank you.
