Gypsy Brown

About Me

Gypsy Brown was born when Elvis Aljus decided to start collaborating with various musicians in order to write his first album. The whole concept of Gypsy Brown was to create a funk style of music that incorporates classic funk/Latin grooves and sounds with driving percussion!....Elvis Aljus being a percussionist/Drummer/ producer in his own right has performed/recorded with various artists that include the likes of: Bamboos, Breakestra, Joe Bataan, Cookin on 3 Burners, Mo Horizons, Dj Spinner and Mark De Clive lowe just to mention a few…....The band name ‘Gypsy Brown’ was chosen on a road trip with Daive Trombetta, as was the first collaborated session date that was to become the ‘Life is a Trip’ session! The first single not having been released yet was passed around to a few DJ’s and was receiving a lot of praise so the Gypsy Brown album was on it’s way....The band members consist of the various artists that have recorded for the album, a collective if you like of drums, bass, guitar, keys, vocals, percussion and horns, all brought together to create that Gypsy Brown sound.......“…Life is a Trip has become a bit of an anthem here at Messin Around in London Jazz Café” – Adrian Gibson (Free Style Records).......“…This is one act to watch out for” – Enio Styles (DJ/funk radio show presenter) ......“…Life is a Trip is rockin the floor again!” – Lance Ferguson/Lanu (Musician/DJ, and head honcho of the Bamboos).
