Born in a modern era with vintage dreams, Deep Sea Gypsies offer a sound that
is all their own. Playing an original, innovative combination of 60’s roots, blues
rock and 70’s southern rock mixed with elements of funk and soul.
With influences such as Jimi Hendrix, Led Zeppelin, Rory Gallagher, Muddy
Waters, and Lynyrd Skynyrd, some might say they have souls much older than
their age would suggest.
Coming together in Victoria, British Columbia’s, Westshore area in 2010, DSG has
firm roots on Vancouver Island. They released a number of DIY demo tracks
before heading into Victoria’s Baker Studio to record their debut EP “Peatt Rd” in
2013. The Band's second EP gained a lot of momentum with its first single “Rock
& Roll Queen” awarding them a bid as the Zone @ 91.3’s Band of the Month for
March 2015. The third track from Cedar Hill X Rd entitled, “Woke Up With The
Blues” features guitar work from fellow westshore blues rocker Jesse Roper. On
Christmas Day 2017 DSG released their first LP titled "Rough Waters." Recorded
with Loke Webb for Vintage Owl Recordings. With additional recording and
engineering by Malcom Owen-Flood for Wood Shop Recording Studios. Rough
Waters is available now on most online streaming services.
Having made great local connections and a solid impact on their community, Deep
Sea Gypsies are taking steps to accomplish their goals and turn their musical
talents into a career.
