Tribal Tech

Tribal Tech is a progressive fusion band, renowned for their complex harmonies, intricate rhythms, and the smoldering interplay between guitar and keyboards. Co-founded in 1984 by the virtuosic guitarist Scott Henderson and the exceptionally talented bassist Gary Willis, the band represents a pinnacle in the exploration of jazz fusion, drawing on influences that span from traditional jazz to hard rock. Tribal Tech filled out their sound with the addition of keyboardist Scott Kinsey and drummer Kirk Covington, each member contributing a distinct musical voice to the group's evolving sound.

Their discography is a testament to their continuous evolution and boundary-pushing style, with albums like "Illicit" and "Face First" showcasing their penchant for thick, groove-laden soundscapes intertwined with avant-garde improvisations. "Thick," released in 1999, and "Rocket Science," released in 2000, continued to defy genre conventions, solidifying their reputation as pioneers within the fusion genre. The band's later album "X," released in 2012, encapsulates their legacy — a blend of technical mastery and fearless experimentation, reflecting the synergistic prowess of its members and the unyielding drive to redefine the limits of fusion music. Despite sporadic activity and eventual disbandment, Tribal Tech remains an iconic name in the world of jazz fusion, influencing countless musicians and leaving behind a legacy of innovation and musical excellence.
