In June of 2008, I ran sound for the Corvallis Music History Project that featured over 40 bands based out of Corvallis in the last 50 years. I ran sound for 20 bands that day, in about 12 hours. During tear down I met Amber Walker, and we talked about our feats learning to play new instruments. I mentioned that was learning bass. She got excited and mentioned that she was learning guitar and starting a band with two other ladies that were playing drums and keys, and they were looking for a bass player. The band name was the Neon Gypsies. This definitely sounded like my scene.
We had our first practice and already had two original pieces. Today, we have an original set list of 21 songs and growing everyday. If you happen to catch a show you will find yourself sing our songs the next morning in the shower. We have played over ten shows, and will be playing during sun set at the annual May Day festival this year. Go here to listen to our music.
