Singer & songwriter of the
group. Self-taught, so has his own theories about music. Likes expressive
playing and leaving space. Never plays same thing twice. Raw and
lyrical at the same time. Relies on thick strings and no pedals
in keeping the sound true.
Larissa Raudas:
Founder member of the original
Gypsy Eyes trio. Weaves brilliant bass lines & succeeds seemingly
impossible job of holding the constantly changing songs together.
Influences: Harvey Brooks, George Porter, Jack Bruce, Jack Myers,
Bugsy Maugh, Rick Danko
Reiska(Reijo)
Juntunen:
Joined Gypsy Eyes late 2002 and played first gig early 2003. He has a sophisticated
and solid touch on the drums. Plays wonderfully on the fast jazz-type
things and does not mind taking a solo.
Selja Raudas:
Joined the group late 2002
and played first gig early 2003. An artist(painter) by profession,
uses her saxophone as a brush too…Only now the canvas is invisible.
