the past 20 years on keyboards, piano, organ, harpsichord, accordion
and pipe organ. He is a graduate of Purchase University in piano

Band.

Gypsy Rose:
Blackmore's Night is proud to announce the addition of Gypsy Rose to
our group of Minstrels. Before joining the band, Gypsy Rose was
traveling the countryside with a band of rogue fiddlers. When she
first heard Blackmore's Night she immediately became enchanted with
their mystic melodies and found herself unable to play anything but
Ghost of a Rose! Though they tolerated this behavior for a time, the
wild-hearted gypsies soon grew tired of the soothing, sweet melody
and cast her off the vardo. Aimlessly wandering the valleys and
hills, Gypsy Rose searched for the magical minstrels who had
captured her bow. A chance meeting with Master Blackmore and Lady
Candice led to the only true remedy for her problem: a strict daily
regimen of Cartouche, Ariel, and very strong ale!

Earl Grey of Chamay - bass, mandolin, guitar.
Often enchanted with a musical spirit he can be found performing his
music throughout medieval forests and cavernous terrains where they
echo the melodic sounds resonating from the instruments played by
Earl Grey of Chamay. Assimilating an alchemistic approach to a
variety of instruments , he brings to Blackmore's Night his music,
camaraderie, a plethora of potent ale, and an extraneous habit of
being a bit verbose., yet a dash of humor emanates through the
serious facade-but he is always passionate about his love for the
music of Blackmore's Night.

Squire Malcolm
- Through the elegant chambers of Castle Lumley,
Squire Malcolm found his way down to the dungeon. A minstrel
band was rehearsing for a banquet taking place in the Barrons Hall
later that evening. Driven by the hypnotic rhythms, soulful guitar,
enchanting vocals, and haunting violin, he found himself compelled
to express the rhythms he was feeling-and Squire Malcolm of Lumley
joined Blackmore's Night as our new percussionist.
