The seasoned, international duo masterfully blends their distinctive Celtic / Americana Roots with a generous infusion of Blues, Jazz and Folk stylings. Cilette Swann's (Canadian/US) exquisitely ethereal, yet powerful four-octave range vocals are partnered with Roman Morykit's (UK) masterful bass and innovative guitar counterpoint. Compared by critics to artists such as Sarah McLachlan, Eva Cassidy, Kate Bush, David Gray, Fleetwood Mac and Bonnie Raitt, these independent mavericks have produced ten critically acclaimed CD. In September of 2009, their 9th Cd, Beneath The Covers: A Rediscovery won Best International Cover Song CD in the worlds largest music awards at Just Plain Folks (aka: the independent Grammys) out of 42,000 CDs from 150 plus countries.
Gypsy Soul has been hailed as "one of the most brilliantly instrumented and vocally adept bands alive and kicking," by the OC WEEKLY. Despite their unique, multi-cultural sound, they have managed to earn a Top 40 hit at Adult Contemporary radio, the #5 position on the International New Age Charts and both a #1 and #8 slot on the Folk DJ Charts. They've also won many independent music awards including Lilith Fair. With their unique ability to connect deeply with their audiences and through their performing excellence and memorable shows, Gypsy Soul has garnered "Critics Choice" in over 60 plus publications nationally including: LA Times, San Francisco Examiner, Seattle Post Intelligencer, The Standard Examiner, SLC Weekly, OC Weekly, OC Register and numerous others.
