We both liked Duran Duran, but especially loved this track. We decided to add it to our upcoming album, Cover Story as it fit the sound of the record. Plus we've actually met the band on a few occasions, not that they'd ever remember!

Ordinary World

Here's the second single from our upcoming album, "Cover Story". We're both big fans of Stevie Wonder and this is the second of his songs that we've covered. We gave this one a celtic vibe and added some almost english, madrigal sounding themes to the instrumental sections. It still has a heavy bass groove  and Cilette sings the shit out of it!

Higher Ground

This was a very popular protest song, by Buffalo Springfield in 1967 and is sadly as relevant today as it was then. We gave the track a retro R&B Soul feel featuring the voice and fretless bass which growls at the bottom. The guitars have a 60s vibe with tremolos and leslie speaker effects.

The video is for today's world. Surveillance and the loss of our privacy will ultimately result in the loss of our freedoms if we don't pay attention.

This is a remixed and remastered version which appears on our new album of Roman's Instrumentals called Firedance. Turn down the lights, turn up the sound and lose yourself in the music!

Authentic" is the word most often used to describe Gypsy Soul. The duo's multicultural heritage helps inform both their message and sound, attracting audiences with their soulful blend of Roots, Pop, Blues and Jazz. For their 15th CD, Cover Story, they pay homage to some of the artists that have inspired them. As you may have guessed, it's a cover album where the duo adds their unique style to songs by The Beatles, Peter Gabriel, Stevie Wonder, Tears For Fears, Buffalo Springfield, Aretha Franklin, Van Morrison, Duran Duran and Louis Armstrong.
