May 12, 2008 - Europe Bound Michael is on his second trip to Europe in less than 6 months, promoting the release of our upcoming album Between Worlds... and probably having the time of his life in the process. It's looks like we'll be simultaneously releasing the album on CD and also on iTunes, thereby cornering the market on credit-card wielding computer-savvy gypsy music lovers everywhere. Anyway, until Michael returns at the end of the month, we don't have any shows planned. Also, it looks like we'll probably get some airtime on CIUT radio in the coming weeks as the Gladstone Hotel promotes our gig on June 6. April 11, 2008 - New Songs and Gladstone Hotel Tonight, the Gypsy Rebels play the Gladstone Hotel! This venue has a great atmosphere, a big Friday night crowd, and should make for an all round awesome evening. We've also posted our latest material from the studio. Jelem Jelem is now on our playlist, as are Sostache, Gaga Gelee, and better versions of Gypsy Reggae and From Your Eyes. March 21, 2008 - New video posted: Sili Grada Our videographer Dave Murray has finished footage he shot of us playing Sili Grada live last fall. By popular demand, this video is full-length! Feb 15, 2008 - New Song, Gladstone Hotel, Photos If you've got any photos from our shows and you'd like us to put them up on the website, please get in touch - our photo gallery needs help! I'd post the email address to send photos right here on the website, but we'd get absolutely buried in spam. We've finished 6 of the studio tracks from Between Two Worlds and posted one more: "This Song". If you'd like us to let you know when the album is ready, please sign up to our mailing list. We also just got booked for a couple of gigs at the Gladstone Hotel on April 11 and June 6. Sweet. December 23, 2007 - New video uploaded: This Song A new video is available on our site and YouTube, of the band performing "This Song" at the Harbourfront festival in Toronto, Summer 2007. Check out our Videos page! November 18, 2007 - Posted new song: Nassau Street Streaming music is back to our site and we've posted a new original song "Nassau Street" from our live album recorded at the Distillery. October 27, 2007 - Streaming Songs Posted Today Michael left for Germany, armed with 10 demo copies of our album: Live at the Distillery. Five of the tracks are now available for you to listen to using the player at the bottom of this page or on our Music page. Enjoy! Feedback is always appreciated. October 26, 2007 - Michael's trip to Germany Michael is leaving for a 2 week trip to Germany on Sunday to drink beer and charm ladies in a new country. And to promote the band's upcoming CD's, Between Two Worlds and Stop and Listen. The bad news is we won't be playing gigs while he's away (see event schedule below). The good news is he needs a live demo album for the trip, so we should have some music available on the site to listen to by the end of the weekend. October 25, 2007 - First video posted on YouTube Our first official video is now up on YouTube! We performed Jelem, Jelem on Baldwin St earlier this summer and our videographer Dave did a great job putting this together - thanks! Let us know what you think - leave a comment in our guestbook or on the YouTube video. |
