Listener reviews of Sanctuary.

"I love this CD. I''ve been a huge fan of Gypsy Soul ever since I saw them perform live nearly a year ago in San Francisco. Their latest release, Sanctuary is one of my all-time favorite Cds. Gypsy Soul is undeniably an awesome band. Their music is comprised of incredibly touching lyrics, sung by the angelic-soulful voice of Cilette Swan, carefully balanced with the instrumentally flawless sounds crafted by the master of various instruments, Roman Morykit. As a result, every song on Sanctuary is BEAUTIFULLY moving. I can''t imagine being without this CD, it spins constantly through my CD player. This is more than a recomendation, it is a declaration. Sanctuary is a neccessity in every music lover''s collection."

"I''ve been a fan of Gypsy Soul''s music for about 3 years now and every time I see them perform live, they still continue to amaze me! SANCTUARY, their latest release is extraordinary. Cilette''s transcendant vocals and Roman''s phenomenal guitar work (and the other million instruments he experiments with!) creates the perfect balance between sheer beauty and driving intensity (good example: track #1 Can''t Let This Go). Their sound is purely unique and this is definetly apparent after the first listen. If you can''t experience Gypsy Soul''s brilliant artistry and creative vibe at a live performance than you must experience SANCTUARY. It''s the next best thing."

"Gypsy Souls sound is in one word "Amazing". Cilette and Roman are two of the most talented artists I''ve seen in along time. Listing to them perform live and for the first time was a experience I''ll never forget. The music they produce is definetlly more than five stars , its a 10 in my books!!!"

"Pleasantly surprised upon listening to this CD. Cilette Swan has got more emotion in her wide vocal range than what should given to one person. Additionaly the music is fresh, and the guitar work by Roman Morykit is wonderful. A "must have" CD!"

BIOGRAPHY:

Gypsy Soul create an unforgettable musical landscape that is as rootsy as it is atmospheric and haunting. Cilette Swann''s exquisitely powerful vocals lead, while partner Roman Morykit balances the band''s ethereal
edge with inspired bass and guitar counterpoint. Cilette writes lyrical tales with impassioned insight and Roman creates the evocative musical tapestry, which the two effortlessly marry. Roman, an experienced producer with fourteen CDs to his credit, handles all of the production and most of the instrumentation for Gypsy Soul''s CDs.

Their extraordinary music and unique sound has been likened to artists such as Fleetwood Mac, Eva Cassidy, Sarah McLachlan, Sheryl Crow, Allison Kraus, Shawn Colvin and Loreena McKennitt for its depth and beauty.

The two met in Scotland and have traveled the world together for 13 years. Between the two of them, the duo has lived in five different countries, thus, bringing to their music, the influences of many cultures. Gypsy Soul''s inspiration also stems from their diverse family roots: Roman is British, of Italian and Ukrainian decent, while Canadian-born
Cilette''s heritage is Irish and South African. Their eclectic "Triple A" sound reflects this diversity and is categorized as "World/Acoustic-Rock" as often as it is called "Celtic/Americana".
