notes
There is a commonality in this life, in that we all will struggle, laugh, overcome, cry, but most importantly, grow. These songs are our struggles, our memories, our laughter, and our growth. We’re very proud of this record, of our songs, and where they have taken us. This is our debut album ‘As the Stars Gather Light’, and it is our sincere hope that you too will take these songs with you and make them your own.
-Gypsy Dave
"Released in mid-October, the 14-song gem has begun earning spins on Americana stations. The jaunty opening cut "Home" and several other gentler songs recall John Denver in his early, folky days, while "April's Song," with its counterpart harmonies, is a goose-bump inducing highlight."
-Dave Richards, Erie Times News
"As the Stars Gather Light is a clear eyed piece of art that demands those jaded consumers pay close attention."
-Indie Music Stop
"The authentic rootsy qualities of his music provide him with all the credibility he needs to be respected in the field, but it's the title track that'll impress people the most. On it, Dave doesn't sound like Guthrie or Dylan, just a young man struggling to find his own place in the world. I reckon he will one day; in the meantime, this is quite a promising debut."
-Whisperin' and Hollerin' (UK)
"Gypsy Dave's songs define real American roots music, combining folk, bluegrass, and country without any studio slickness."
-Michael Sutton (CD Reviews.com)

author: Justin NystromI heard this album on the jukebox at the Penny Bar while visiting a friend in Meadville, PA and had to have it
As the Stars Gather Light
author: B-rianThis is nothing short of a great album. Gypsy Dave and the Stumpjumpers are a solid, talented band out of Northwestern PA who have put out a record that reflects all the great things about the band. I find myself getting the songs stuck in my head quite often and recommend it for fans of folk, americana, or country music.
Great Album!!
author: Johhny StixxI love this CD. I saw them live when they opened for the Avett Brothers and they are fantastic. Why is the drummer's picture not in the CD with the rest of the band? He rocks! The music is very real and it sounds like the drummer plays a bucket on track 7 which is so awesome. Buy this CD now and go see them live. They play honest music and wear great hats!
