[GARAGE BLUES] With stripped-down blues rock that makes early White Stripes sound like a full orchestra, Nashville duo Blackfoot Gypsies has mastered the nitty gritty sound of angst and fuzz. With vocals as distorted as his static-y git box, frontman Matthew Paige is a ball of energy floating over bluesy licks and crashing drums courtesy of bandmate Zack Murphy. Blackfoot Gypsies’ sound is by no means original, but the duo has honed a cocktail of explosive riffage and grimy thump that bursts out of the garage with panache and swagger.

Bio
The Blackfoot Gypsies is the coming together of Matthew Paige, singer/songwriter and guitar player, and Zack Murphy, tenured drummer from Nashville, TN. With the attitude and swagger of vintage country and rock lore from the past, the Blackfoot Gypsies is paving their path as one of America’s next contributors to the legacy of rock and roll! The authentic trans-western vibe has been masterfully crafted in the traditional roots of American music. We can hear the influences of Bob Dylan’s ragged vocals, Robert Johnson’s slide and blues soul, and Willie Nelson’s stories. Tough yet occasionally tender, the Keith Richards-inspired riffs and thunderous rhythms of Led Zeppelin are contrasted by Gram Parson’s angelic sense of country music.
The musical journey of the Blackfoot Gypsies continues to evolve, as their footprint on new towns across the country continues to take shape. The Blackfoot Gypsies have a strong presence in their hometown of Nashville, TN, having played in the the top venues Nashville has to offer.
The music crosses all boundaries creating fans of all ages and backgrounds. The Blackfoot Gypsies create timeless American music that feeds the American soul.
