Tribal Seeds was formed by two brothers, Steven Rene Jacobo (vocals, guitar) and Tony-Ray Jacobo (producer, keyboard, vocals) and joined by Carlos Verdugo (drums), Victor Navarro (bass), E.N Young (keyboards, vocals) and Ryan Gonzo (guitar,vocals). Since forming, they have gained many fans through their refreshing take on rock influenced reggae, focusing more on roots and rocksteady influences to inform their sound, looking back to artists like Black Uhuru, The Congos, Peter Tosh and the Abyssnians.
The band released their self-titled debut album in 2008, named 'Best Of' in an iTunes list of Reggae releases that year. They also received a local award for 'Best World Music' at the San Diego Music Awards. Their second record, "Harvest" (2009) also was named 'Best Of' by iTunes, achieving chart success by reaching number five in the Billboard Reggae Charts.
After several successful tours, the band returned to the studio to record the EP, "Soundwaves" which went to number two on the Billboard Reggae Charts.The band have toured extensively throughout their career, performing across the United States as well as in Mexico and Aruba. They have supported artists including The Wailers, Collie Buddz, Gregory Issacs, Rebelution and a whole host of others.
Their eagerly awaited fourth album came out in 2014, titled "Representing," debuting at number one on the Billboard Reggae Charts and number 114 on the Billboard 200. The album solidified their place in the world of contemporary reggae, as one of the top bands in the scene.
Best reggae concert I have seen in SA so far. Also the nicest venue I have seen Tribal Seeds at, I hope they continue coming to SA. It would be nice to see the reggae appreciating community in SA grow.

Fortunate Youth definitely wants to convey the true art of reggae through their music. They have the drive to present the laid back vibes of reggae and spread the joys of living the simple life through music.
Their music is heavily guided on the feeling of the music, which often leads to sessions of improvised jamming. Their music has a wide vibrant sound that sticks to the style of traditional reggae. The bass lines in the music follow the classic dub style of reggae with great low end and a rich sound that provides the heart-beat of the music. The percussion in the music is mainly produced on the bongo drums and really drives the energy into the band’s sound. There is also another percussionist in the band that plays a traditional drum kit that helps bolster the overall rhythm of the music. The guitar is presented with a clean, crisp sound with hints of reverb to convey that funky slap-back effect. Fortunate Youth’s keyboardist uses his synthesizers to create various sounds that add great layers to the music. He is able to use his synthesizers to create the sounds of steel drums, xylophones, saxophones, and the traditional piano sound that is occasionally run through delay to achieve some psychedelic effects.
Lead vocalist, Dan Kelly, has the reggae style of singing down pat. At points his voice sometimes resembles the soothing, soulful voice of Bob Marley. You can tell that Kelly is singing with great passion and that he is truly dedicated in conveying the peaceful vibes of reggae music. Everyone in the band is swaying along to their jiving music and the audience is just as engrossed in the smooth vibe that is instilling them with the desire to dance to the music.
Fortunate Youth have already established themselves in the reggae community through their accomplishments of being on the iTunes and Billboard reggae charts. Their good vibes and chill music is starting to become highly contagious and are increasingly garnering the attention of people who are looking to be serenaded by the old school sound of reggae music.
