About Gypsy Kitchen

Hidden somewhere in the ambiguity of instrumental funk and conventional pop/rock lies Gypsy Kitchen. When the lines blur, they define; when distinct, they manage to cloud previous perception. The ability of this quartet to awe lies with their versatility, both stylistically and as individuals. By keeping themselves guessing, they manage to stray from the conventional. Gypsy Kitchen initially formed in the summer of 2003 by brothers Ryan and Eric Frank as a venture in acid/funk, a genre the two had previously left alone. The band split up, however, when Ryan parted for educational pursuits in St. Paul, Minnesota (he now doubles as the band's lawyer). Knowing he couldn’t be without a band for long, Eric went on to form Chinese Fingertrap in October of 2005. From 2006-2009, Chinese Fingertrap toured heavily, gaining fans and respect throughout the Midwest by sharing the bill with the likes of Medeski, Martin and Wood, Galactic, and Les Claypool at worthy venues and festivals such as 10,000 Lakes Music and Camping Festival, Wakarusa and The Grateful Garcia Gathering to name a few. CFT even created their own festival, Operation Adaptation, held over three days in the beauty of the Wisconsin countryside in a promotion of eco-friendly lifestyle alternatives. With the disintegration of Chinese Fingertrap in late 2009, Gypsy Kitchen returned, adding Tony Smith on bass and Jeff “Muska” Purcell on keyboards. Later, in late 2011, Eric left for Denver, where he continues his musical journey with Art Smart Anatomy. The current lineup features former GK alumni Rory Harding on drums, Brian Gray on the bass, and Luc Richardson on keyboads. The mystery of the future holds no fear for Gypsy Kitchen. Their reward lies in their dedication. Their bonds only thicken with time, allowing the music to mature and hence, inspire their audiences. The ethereal grooves that spawn from these musicians blend with complex and incredibly catchy song writing that placate the soul and excite the senses, while unique perspectives compound with amazing musical enthusiasm to create a fresh, organic sound that appeals to all audiences. GK is a four-piece rock band rooted in blues, jam, funk, and psychedelia.
