Unified Tribe - FUNKtional Family [2006]

Link 2

Unified Tribe is back with their third and most soulful album to date, “FUNKtional Family.” From smooth mid tempos like “Back And Forth” that deal with the trials of relationships, to upbeat mood transforming cuts like “Happy Go Lucky,” the album takes you on an emotional journey that reflects our human commonalities. The record also proves that Unified Tribe knows how to put the funk in “FUNKtional.” Heavy hitting bass and brass drive tracks like “That Beat” and “Get the Funk.” Songs that clearly pay tribute to the Tribe’s funk ancestry.

Arguably the hottest soul/R&B album around; a must for lovers of the soulful groove.

"Mixed Messages", Unified Tribe's follow up album to "Listen To This" contains fifteen amazing songs. It is a collaboration by the entire tribe that culminates their experiences and influences into a single project that is highly reminiscent of the bands New York roots. The record is predominated by darker chord structures and the more intense R&B, Jazz and Funk sounds that are at the core of the groups style and creative drive. This highly diverse record displays a wide spectrum of emotional and musical settings from song to song. It was this unlikely blend that spawned the albums name, "Mixed Messages". There is certainly something for everyone on this album and many of the songs seem to effortlessly bridge the gaps between genres and generations.













Unified Tribe - Listen To This [2001]

Link 2

Unified Tribe... You've never seen or heard anything like it. Their debut album "Listen To This" combines the orchestrations of yesterday with the sounds of today. The result is a mixture of Pop, R&B, and Jazz that features powerful vocal harmonies, stunning instrumental works and uplifting rhythms. It's an eclectic sound you can see! The 12 musicians collectively known as Unified Tribe vary in age and ethnicity, and live together in Austin, Texas. With a philanthropic perspective, Unified Tribe donates portions of proceeds from their CD sales to charitable causes.

They are definitely reminiscent of great bands such as EWF and Chicago. All of the members are diverse and beautiful people.
