For 17 years now the award winning recipe for The Texas Gypsies sound is to perform the “Vintage Jazzy Swingin" cool hep cat sounds of the Great Gatsby era 1920's, plus a mix of the Big Band Swing sound of the 1930's and 40’s, add in a taste of its sister sound, Western Swing, sprinkle some Django style Gypsy Jazz over the top and finally finish up with a pinch of Retro Deco Rockin Roll! The band mixes passionate violin, a blazing horn section, rockin-swingin guitars, slappin upright bass, and retro style drumming to harmoniously create their own unique, classy and fun sound!

We can perform music form the 1920's to more Modern Styles with instrumentals and male and female singers.

“The Texas Gypsies have accomplished what few bands have even tried, let alone succeeded in doing in the past. The group blends elements of traditional small group Swing, Gypsy Jazz and Western Swing into a tightly woven fabric of 21st Century sophistication and jumpin, thumpin entertainment!!"

Texas Gypsies is a fun band playing at a level above the rest. All of the Gypsies are great North Texas musicians known nationally for their terrific musicianship. Their remarkable talents come together in this band to play music at a very high performance level and to have fun doing it. Artistically this is a great band, and for delightful entertainment, no party band is better. Bill Martin ArtsSeniorStudySociety
