Gypsy Brown is the creation and brain child of Elvis Aljus a renowned producer,drummer, percussionist and recording artist.

The word Gypsy means 'one inclined to a nomadic, unconventional way of life' and Brownis a colour (found in tree trunks and dirt) so by nature, Elvis steers the GypsyBrown sound into an eclectic mix of grooves and sounds that gets people movingand shakin on the dance floor.

Staying true to the name, the music reflects an unconventional, vagabond sound combining andworking within a mix of genres and styles. In the Gypsy Brown world musical genres come together and explode to createa fusion of sounds, that take influence from funk, Latin, reggae and all bits in-between …the music can’t bepigeon-holed, leaving you wanting more.

Elvis has played with and recorded alongside some of the most respected musicians in theindustry. Melbourne Ska Orchestra,Mo Horizons (Germany), Breakestra (USA), Joe Bataan(USA), The Bamboos, DanielMerriweather and Nouvelle Vague(France) have all danced with the gypsy.
