About Me

Check out Gypsy Soul's brand new album, Beneath the Covers: A Rediscovery, available for download now at the iTunes music store:
Alternating between haunting melodies and atmospheric grooves, Gypsy Soul creates a lush musical landscape of acoustic rock with Celtic and Americana roots. Cilette Swann's exquisitely ethereal-yet-powerful vocals are partnered with Roman Morykit's inspired bass and guitar counterpoint. Compared by critics to artists as diverse as Sarah McLachlan, Lorenna McKinnett, Eva Cassidy, Alison Krauss, K.D. Lang, Kate Bush and Fleetwood Mac, the adventurous duo has produced eight critically acclaimed albums.
Gypsy Soul broke onto the US music scene with the infectious Top 40 AC hit "Silent Tears," and has gone on to sell an impressive 100,000 CD's independently. Their songs have been featured in television and film hundreds of times in over fourteen different countries, on hit TV shows such as PROVIDENCE, ROSWELL, FELICITY as well as several MTV specials, movies-of-the-week and feature films.
On the new album, BENEATH THE COVERS: A REDISCOVERY, Roman and Cilette pay homage to some of the artists and writers who've inspired them both musically and lyrically. The CD, which features innovative new arrangements of classic songs by artists such as Chris Isaak, U2 and Stevie Wonder, as well as the original song "Silver Lining," was released in 2007. The album garnered rave reviews www.cdbaby.com/cd/gotsoul9 and reached number 5 on the International New Age Reporter radio charts and was nominated by the DJs there for Best Vocal Album of 2007. The album also reached the Top Ten in the Folk Charts. For more information on Gypsy Soul, please visit www.gypsysoul.com .
