Tiffany has been playing and writing music for more than a decade, beginning in the Virgin Islands, where she was raised. She began working on her debut album in January of 2007. The album, Back to the Water, was completed and released at the end of 2008.

Rounding out Rising Tribe is Joe Willis on drums and percussion, Lindsey Nogueira on bass and Phakamani Pega on violin.

About the album, Phosphorescence Magazine wrote:

Tiffany's songs "have a sense of timelessness, as if they always existed and were just waiting for the right person to pull them out of the air and put them to paper and music ... This Massachusetts band's 2008 debut album, Back To The Water, is one of those infrequent examples where all the elements work together perfectly to create an inspiring whole. Each song is thoughtful, well crafted and arranged, and pleasingly delivered in a smooth, pure, straightforward way. The impressive musicianship is stirring and breathes life into every track.

Categorized as Folk Rock, Country, Island Reggae, and Classic Rock, Rising Tribe demonstrates adeptness at each genre, catching all the nuances and bringing them to light. In addition, the song 'In Pain' holds a Celtic reminder with its sweet, natural sound, and the title track, 'Back To The Water' has a moving tribal feel. It's difficult to choose a favorite, as every selection has so much to offer. 'Think' is philosophical and smart with a modern edge; 'Montana' is country -- simple and clean, with pitch-perfect harmony, and 'No Hard Feelings' is sad and sweet. We loved the catchy 'Six O'Clock,' too. This music inhabits both the past and the here and now, simultaneously -- a rare feat for a band that is a rare find."

***** Excellent!
