The Tipsy Gypsies play a unique mix of groove, jazz, and pop that is lively and fun for everyone.
From the Central Coast of California, the band consists of vocalist Hilary Langdon, guitarist Forrestt Williams, saxophone/clarinetist Laura Foxx, bassist Brian Lanzone, drummer Daryl VanDruff, with additional vocals from the talented Reese Galido.
Live Tipsy Gypsies shows invite audience members to experience the infectious joy felt on-stage. While intermixing favorite tunes new and old with intentional improvised jams, the band engages concert-goers through grooves meant for singing and dancing along.
In both 2017 and 2016, the Tipsy Gypsies won several San Luis Obispo New Times Music Awards, including Best Album, Best Live Band, and Reader’s Choice. The band has felt at home performing on large stages, such as Live Oak Music Festival and SLO Concerts in the Plaza, and also enjoys filling an intimate venue with their full and energized sound
Their new EP, titled ’Ten’, is a celebration of the Tipsy Gypsies’ ten years as a performing group. It features three brand new tracks, alongside two tracks from two previous releases. ‘Ten’ is available anywhere you find music.
