The Vibe Tribe are a progressive Jazz band based in the Mayo area.
The band enjoy a diversity of musical tastes which is reflected in their
repertoire - from hot swing tunes such as 'Fly me to the moon' to the
luscious latin of 'Blue Bossa' and upbeat funk ala 'Watermelon man'.
This wide-ranging repertoire makes it an ideal choice for many different
settings such as wedding receptions, parties, corporate functions, pub gigs
etc.
Several of the members have studied jazz formally in Newpark College and
all have cut their teeth in the pop and rock music genres.
The Vibe Tribe are currently playing in selected venues throughout Mayo.
