The Valentes (formerly the Gypsy Pickers) are New Zealand based global musicians. Their music is a rich blend of reggae, country, folk and blues.

Aurora comes as two compact discs; one being Lindy's Songs, and the other being Ron's Songs.

Lindy's Songs includes the jazzy 'Real Me', the earthy 'Bit Of Magic', the strutting 'He's Coming Home', and gypsy flavoured 'Little River Lullaby'.

Ron's Songs includes the reggae based title track, 'Nikau Palm' that comes complete with natures atmospherics, 'Illuminati' is a song with a real message, and the rustic 'Blues For The Bluesman'.

You may think that having two separate discs is an unusual arrangement, but it works, as their composition styles are slightly varied, and this suits the packaging.

Lindy sings and plays a fusion of jazzy-country, whereas Ron performs with more reggae-country leanings. Their vocals are sublime, and their musicianship is world-class.
