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.
Bio / Background
Unified Tribe has a special treat for the Triber who purchases the 500th CD from CDBaby. That person will win a 2GB iPod Nano stocked full of the Tribe's last two albums as well as the brand new FUNKtional Family.
__________________________________________________________
Unified Tribe is an Austin-based band with New York and L.A. roots. With 12 principal members, they are a throwback in both size and sound to the days of big bands like Earth, Wind and Fire and Sly and The Family Stone.
It's the true musicality of their records that first draws in most fans. It's an element that is missing from so many industry-formulated artists these days. The Tribe is anything but industry-formulated. With a core that's been together for almost 24 years, they've grown up together and it's on top of their strong relationships that they build strong music.
Their parent production company, Magic Muzik Productions, Inc.
↓ more ↓, which consists entirely of the band, has produced and worked with such RnB and Jazz veterans as Earth, Wind and Fire, The Whispers, The Manhattans, Phil Perry, The Rippingtons and others.
Though the group has received some of their biggest musical breaks through production, concerts are where they really shine. Fans and industry aficionados alike often comment on the live show as far surpassing any expectations (however high) set by the albums. Their shows are as visual as they are aural, with dancing, great inter-member interaction, audience participation, and musicians constantly switching instruments. You have to see it three or four times just to integrate it all.

What people are saying...
Unified Tribe Should have a health warning on it, its SO GOOD!
- Dave W (Starpoint Radio)
Arguably the hottest soul/R&B album around; a must for lovers of the soulful groove.
-Blues & Soul Magazine
FUNKtional Family isn't just one of the albums of the year; it is a true classic and deserves to sit alongside all the classics of our lifetime.
- DJ Bigger
I LOVE IT! This is my favorite thing by you guys to date. It's so FUNKY!
- Carl Jacobson (Cakewalk Software)
"I went to their studio prepared to say - yeah they are cool and left with my mouth wide open...These cats are bad!"
- Howard Hewett
"There's a new face in town and his name is Magic - his band (Unified Tribe) is the badest band on the planet. If history repeats itself, then Unified Tribe is the next Earth Wind and Fire."
- The Whispers
