Sounds Like:

Our "fun and energetic" music encourages an uplifting syncopation. The Pop/Rock/Reggae fused with Latin Rhythms combination entices virgin ears to stop and listen. A mix between Cafe Tacuba, Ozomatli, Manu Chao, Santana and Dave Mathews Band, make the music experience a treat to anyone in presence. Family friendly to all ages and groups, our music is funky, rhythmically catchy and vibrant. Our instrumentation is powerful, skillful and relieving. We are musically influenced by jazz, Latin, rock and reggae backgrounds. Influential bands range from domestic to international bands. The collections of different cultures, ultimately, collide to form the Tropic Culture Band.

TROPIC CULTURE was something else. This 9 piece original Latin pop band swept the audience and judges away with their upbeat and fun set. They had a trumpet, violin, acoustic and electric guitar, bass, percussion and drums that created a unique and dance worthy sound. Their bassist "Andrew Rodriguez" went home with the prize for "Best Bass Player" as the judges and audience concluded that this was the band to represent Charlotte in Columbia, South Carolina’s finals next weekend. Well-done guys! You deserve it. Tropic Culture, whose roots are of the Latin influence, spiced the show with a dance-worthy and energetic set. With a mix of reggae-pop and funk these native South Americans impressed the audience with a diverse group of musicians. The only percussion and fiddle of the event helped guide these talented musicians into the semi-final rounds of Emergenza’s Festival with flying colors. Tropic Culture is a blend of Latin, reggae, pop, island and rock. They are everything you want to hear and more. With an array of musicians ranging from keys and guitar to violin and a horn section these guys are not only entertaining to watch but are also a tasty treat for ears. They make you want to laugh, dance, sing and jump all at the same time. - Emergenza
