Guruh Gipsy

Guruh Gipsy is an Indonesian band from the mid-1970s who fused American and European progressive rock with traditional Balinese and Javanese music. Guruh Gipsy is basically a collaborative effort between Guruh Soekarno Putra – the fifth child of Indonesia’s first President, Soekarno – and Gipsy. Guruh was born in Jakarta, 13 January 1953 and since his childhood her mother (Fatmawati) reckoned that he had strong passion for art and strong sense of accomplishment.
