Gypsy Caravan
The Gypsy Caravan from Portland Oregon
Musical instigators Bruce Beaton and Jeff Rees have led the musical gypsy trail for this Gypsy Caravan since 1991. The musicians of Gypsy Caravan have a diverse background. Anywhere from four to nine musicians play with the band, adding more strings and percussion to fill out their intoxicating sound! The band plays with and without dancers, although their main focus is playing for Gypsy Caravan Dance Company dancers.
They have an extensive repertoire of original songs and enjoy playing at variety of performance requests, from large theatrical productions and art festivals, to smaller nightclubs and intimate celebrations.
