Husband and wife Steve and Sarah had both done a few other things musically, but had always wanted to form a band together. We rounded up a couple of friends to play a gig with us, and the next thing we knew we were booking more dates and thinking up a name for the band ("Gypsy Twang" is a nod to both Red Dirt and Country music). The first venue we played was Lambrusco'z, a fabulous little deli in
Tulsa's Brookside neighborhood. Lambrusco'z is owned by our friend Nancy Bruce, and our good friend Becky Gragg works there as well. Nancy had been thinking of hosting a few music shows at the deli, and asked Becky if she thought we'd like to play. Of course we did, so we recruited a guitar player and a mandolin player to do the gig with us. Since then, we've played Lambrusco'z on a regular basis. Not only that, but Lambrusco'z is now an established and sought-after venue on the Tulsa music scene. We have had the pleasure and good fortune to play many gigs in the ensuing years. We've played restaurants, bars, wineries, benefits, festivals, farmer's markets and private functions. The band line-up has undergone several transformations, but one thing remains the same- Sarah and Steve are the heart of the band. Our unique brand of music includes original, traditional, singer/songwriter, and vintage country tunes. As we've progressed, we have found ourselves leaning more and more towards Sarah's traditional country roots. Steve's dad was a piano player, and often invited friends over for jam sessions. His taste ran to jazz and standards, so that's the music Steve grew up with. Sarah's dad, on the other hand, wasn't a musician himself. But he loved music, and passed along his love of Country and Western music to her from an early age. Today, we perform many country standards, along with Sarah's original tunes, Americana, traditional and folk songs. We hope you'll come out to see us sing and play. We'd love to see your smiling face!
