Gypsy Ghosts are an electric and theatrical band based out of London, Ontario. Both infectious and haunting motifs have inspired three bodies of work. The first self-titled EP was recorded with Greg Hatchette on the Summer Supermoon of 2012. The second EP, Bird Language, was recorded at EMAC studios with Matt Grady (2013) with the winnings of the 98.1 Free FM “Under the Covers” contest. After a successful crowd funded campaign, Gypsy Ghosts returned to EMAC studios in 2014 to record their first full-length album, Madmen Only, released early 2015
“Like the name implies, their style is definitely nomadic and maybe even a little bit spooky. The all-acoustic outfit takes pride in dabbling in a number of genres — blues, rock, jazz, reggae — but describes their sound as “swampy gypsy/pirate rock.”
Whatever that means exactly, it’s full of catchy guitar riffs, smooth, clean vocals, and a unique rhythm section that works as both minimalist and intricate.”
