Evil Eye Gypsy

We're looking forward to playing at the Main Street Pub on March 2nd with
another hometown band, Epistone.

We're looking forward to the new year, and a great show with our friends Tracilyn Michael and MoniKit.  This will be the first time these three bands will share a stage since the Music For The Arts Festival in September 2012.  There's something for everyone here; 60's style folk rock with a modern twist by MoniKit, amazing singer songwriter blues by Tracilyn, and ofcourse, our own eclectic alternative psychedelic shoegaze acid rock sound.

For those of you who have never been to the Oregon Express in Dayton's historice Oregon Distric, we're happy to let you know that it is a great venue!  Great food, and a wide variety of beers on tap and in the bottle to choose from, and spirits to help keep the new year rolling along right.  The address is 336 E. 5th Street in Dayton, and the doors open at 5 p.m.  See you there!

Though it’s still a few months off, the planning is already in full swing for the Music For The Arts festival in Dayton on September 22nd. Artist from the greater Dayton area will be displaying and selling their art, and some really great music acts will be opening for us. Susan McCasland with her celtic and folk music, and the MoniKitty Experience, with a great mix of folk rock, roots music, and a summer of love attitude.

The real promotion for this event hasn’t started yet, but get ahead of the crowd and mark your calendars now!

We'd like to thank Tim from Indie Bands Blog for his kind words regarding our band.

After the release of our first cd, when the initial excitement wore off, we realised that we were back at square one in the writing/recording process.  We were ready to start writing songs for our next cd. 

The most difficult thing about putting an album together, is choosing those first few songs, and developing a feel for the flow of the music.  We already had a fair share of songs written, with scratch tracks recorded for several, but which ones would we pick to start building an album?  Would we take the music deeper into the psychedelic realm, or into a hard rock direction? 

At this point, I'm happy to say that we have about half of the cd written, recorded and in post-production.  So far the songs have been a pretty good mix of styles and dynamics, and we've managed to blend the hard rock and hippie sounds together into what we hope will be fun songs to listen to.  We're taking our time, and don't have a release date set, but we'll probably post a preview song in the next couple of months.

Our current release is now on Reverb Radio, and you can check us out at www.reverbnation.com/evileyegypsy .  Our music is also going to be reviewed at www.indiebandsblog.com on December 19th.  You can also now follow us on Twitter at www.twitter.com/Evil_Eye_Gypsy .
