MINI BIO:
Searching for a musical soul mate, Canadian-born singer/lyricist, Swann traveled to Europe chasing her Celtic roots. After a few years singing in French jazz clubs, her quest took her to Scotland where she met world-class, UK musician and producer, Morykit.
Half a million miles later and countless unforgettable concerts, these esteemed performers have sold 1.5 million downloads and over 120,000 CDs independently. Gypsy Soul’s music has aired many times in films and TV shows including: Providence, Felicity and Roswell. They’ve had a Top 40 A/C radio hit and most recently, their songs have aired throughout Europe, including the BBC. With sixty plus “Critic’s Picks” under their belts and countless sold-out shows, the Duo’s sophisticated, spiritual pop-rock leaves a lasting impression wherever their Gypsy Soul’s take them.
