Tribal Seeds is a reggae band based in San Diego, California.[1] They released a self-titled album on February 12, 2008 which was one of the eight iTunes "Best of 2008" reggae albums.

With heavy influence from Whitney Houston, Steel Pulse, Midnite, and the Police, the group is headed by two brothers, both raised in San Diego playing instruments since early childhood. The lead singer Steven Jacobo writes the lyrics for the group, and his brother, keyboardist Tony-Ray Jacobo, writes all their music along with the other band members. The other band members are Marc Munoz, guitarist; John Wegener, bass; Carlos Verdugo, drummer; and Tony Navarro, percussion.[2] They have toured throughout the United States as well as Mexico, Aruba, and Guam, and have shared the stage with Matisyahu, The Wailers, Gregory Isaacs, Stephen Marley, SOJA, Rebelution, and many more.

Their album, The Harvest, was released in June 2009 and debuted at the number 5 spot on the Billboard Reggae Charts. The album consists of fourteen new and original songs, written and produced by Tribal Seeds. Their latest album, Soundwaves, was released in July 2011 and peaked at #2 on the Billboard Reggae Charts.[3]
