Get ready for a fresh dose of The Reality! This funkadelic foursome hails from the sunny shores of Tampa, Florida and has hit the bay area with a new sound that has the masses in a daze, like a hot summer's day. With music as sweet and juicy as the first bite of one of the bands signature pineapples🍍, pin your ears back and listen to their soul drenched music and see why fans are just begging for another sip!

Known for their unique blend of funk, fusion, disco, jamtronica, reggae, and rock, the collective quartet has brought a fresh and exciting presence to the music scene, always daring to push the limits and break new boundaries. Look no further than The Reality for all your musical needs. They spread the message of love❤ and unity everywhere they go. Help them share the message? Curious? Just come to this show on March 9, 2004 at Terra Fermata to see what The Reality is all about.🍍🍍

Dan Jones
Fueled by Cuban coffee☕, Florida orange juice🍊, and medicinal herbs🌿, you'll catch this lead singer/songwriter/guitarist occasionally even sporting a trombone during the shows. Dan is widely known in Ybor City (Tampa's historic district) as the player to see for a number of reasons. His skills and knowledge of music, combined with his instrumental prowess, put him on another level of artistry completely. Beyond that, Dan's passion for music and his clearly evident love of playing is what you really take home. The way he communicates a variety of emotions and color via sound is truly artistic and inspirational.

Caleb Bone
Another rare Florida native🍊, Caleb takes the smooth, melodic bass 🎸lines of Flea, Pino Palladino and Victor Wooten, and combines them with classic slap tones made by Les Claypool and Marcus Miller. In addition to his skills on his instrument, he is a 4-time Florida All-State singer; this makes him "One of the best double-threats in the touring business", according to Dan. He also went on to say "I am truly blessed to be working with who I whole-heartedly believe are some of the best musicians in the area." Caleb sings warm and rich harmonies with Dan's melodies while simultaneously playing extremely intricate and innovative bass lines.

BA Jones
Born in San Antonio, Texas🐂 and raised in Florida🍊, his sweet 🍭syncopated rhythms are sure to make your head bob and your hips shake🕺🏽⚡🏽. BA gathers his drumming identity from funk, jazz, gospel, rock, and traditional percussion styles. Don't blink or you may miss a beat!

Meetsa Juanjamon🦏
Multi instumentalist Meetsa Juanjamon🦏 makes his saxophone🎷 sing beautiful, soulful notes🎶 and his keyboard playing puts that danceable groove right into the music. He vocals styles range from rude boy reggae to George Clinton style Funk. He joins Tampa's REAL #1 Funk Band: The REALITY🍍. Forget the rest, Come see the best.🍍
