The Gypsy Moths - Following The Races (2022) [Official Digital Download 24/44-48]

The latest from Boston’s The Gypsy Moths is nine tracks of pure, dance-around-the-house bliss. Combining the seemingly disparate genres of Soul, R&B and garage rock, the sextet have created a hybrid you didn’t know you needed until you heard it.

"Boston garage soul outfit The Gypsy Moths is back with a new album of genre- and era-transcending music that will appeal to fans of The Rolling Stones’ R&B and World Party’s alternative rock as well as Ryan Hamilton’s power pop and The Dogmatics’ pub rock. On Following The Races, this awesome band – Steve O’Brien (lead vocals), Chris Conway (guitar, backing vocals, percussion, piano), Phil Thompson (bass, backing vocals), Mark Donahue (keyboards, piano), Matt Miceli (drums, percussion , timpani) and Scott Miller (saxophone, flute, clarinet) – throws a dance party that we can’t get enough of. You get eight upbeat songs full of hooks (the pleasure of playing is splashing)." - Add To Want List

"The horn-heavy album kicks off with “Effortlessly,” which lays out the vibe for what follows, uncomplicated but addictive, danceable Soul with enough grit and grim to appeal even to the sneering punk rockers. There manages to be a bit of a Springsteen feel to the opening song. Elsewhere, they slather a little funk on tracks like “Slow Healer,” and “The Continuing Story of Arthur Duffy” is four minutes of straight-ahead rock ‘n’ roll." - New Noise Magazine

"When I listen to The Gypsy Moths, I hear a lot of different sounds. There are guitars, drums, horns, keyboards and of course great vocals. What it all adds up to is fantastic music and it will soon be coming your way on Rum Bar Records!! Give it a listen, you won't be disappointed." - Skybar Rising, WMFO

"Good one! ("Slow Healer") It's got a "Miss You" (Stones song) vibe." - Bill Kelly's Blackhole Bandstand

"Uplifting, danceable and very infectious soul presentation." - Maximum Volume Music

"The thing that gets our attention is their songwriting. Off the four songs that you can hear on Bandcamp there's “Effortlessly” and “Relieveo.” Those are two examples of their ear catching craftsmanship." - Boston Groupie News

“The Gypsy Moths from Boston with Relievio relives the 1960s, musically. The music is certainly The Beatles inspired, from 1964-66 era and incorporates that typical piano sound from the hits of The Kinks.” - WoNo Blog
