You can hear New Orleans in some of the keys, blues and even Latin rhythm in their sound. Mix it all up and you get the Urban Gypsies.

The inside story: The band started at the Audubon Zoo in New Orleans in 1996. A bunch of guys start jamming at night after working at the Zoo. From the ZOO ROCK sessions the Urban Gypsies developed it's own New Orleans sound. That's where the caravan began.
