1. Let’s start from the beginning, when and where did it all start? And with who?
It started in San Diego, CA in the summer of 03 with my self (Tony Ray) and my brother Steve.

2. If you had to describe Tribal Seeds sound in one sentence, what would you say?
A new style of Reggae.

3. Name 3 artists that have inspired you as a band.
Steel Pulse, Midnite, and Bob Marley

4. What do you see in the future for music, with all of the outlets available for exposure, along with the current Internet craze?
I see more and more bands staying independent. With all the outlets there is no limit to what a band can accomplish by them selves.

5. What can we expect to see from Tribal Seeds in the next year? Any big plans?
We plan to be doing a lot of touring. We haven’t toured the states yet but after we release our upcoming album in the winter of `07, we’ll be spending plenty of time on the road.

6. What has TS been listening to lately?
We listen to everything. Just to name a few Manu Chao, Midnite, Steel pulse, Marley, Twinkle Brothers, System of a Down, Dead Prez, The roots, everything!

7. Your thoughts on independent music and if it’s possible to be successful through these means of distribution?
I think independent music is a breath of fresh air. It’s music created and produced by the artist without a corporation messing with it. It’s very possible to be successful. More and more people are searching for new music. The Indie scene is getting bigger and bigger.

8. If we can’t find you playing a gig or practicing music, where might we expect to find you?
We’ll be at shows checking out other bands. All over San Diego, hanging out with friends. At the beach!

9. How many shows do you play a year? What’s the atmosphere typically like?
This past year we haven’t played too many shows but that’ll change as soon as the album drops. The atmosphere is very energetic. We love feeling the crowd’s energy and giving it right back. We play good vibe music and people always tell us they can feel it.

10. Lastly, your thoughts on INDISTR.COM?
Great site! I like how you encourage bands to stay independent and why they should. You’ve also made it really easy to buy and sell music. Another great outlet, for artist to promote their work!
