Gal Drimmer   &   Scott Schaefer

Sonoran Gypsies

Many sounds permeate Southwest style music, but two are unmistakable: Spanish/Classical Guitar and Native American style flute. Sonoran Gypsies’ style transcends the typical Southwest sound by being the first pure Southwest style  duo, elegantly combining guitar and Native American flute.  Sonoran Gypsies captures your imagination and lifts your spirits with a beautiful, energetic, passionate style that is nothing short of exciting, exhilarating,

and emotionally enthralling.

Scott Schaefer

Native American Style Flute, Didgeridoo and Handpan

​

One of the most versatile Native American Style Flute (NAF) players in world music today, Scott goes way beyond the paradigm of the usual tribal sound associated with NAF. His ability to improvise so naturally and effortlessly to any genre and in particular Latin style music, brings an excitement to the NAF that is rarely experienced.
