“An evening with ANCESTREE is an evening of conscious hip shaking earth quaking FUN! Lead by three part vocal harmonies by Tomas Gomez, Alia Fintz and Tom Maimon and featuring BASS from Apple Hill native Christopher Carr, you can tell ANCESTREE loves Bob Marley and Sub-Comandante Marcos. An inspiring 8-piece ensemble!”

— sacmag.com, Sacramento Magazine

“Rock bands have been mixing elements of reggae and rock steady into their music for decades now. Ancestree on the other hand are a reggae/rock steady band that mixes just a dash of rock and roll into their songs in much the same manner, and without losing the basic groove that defines them as reggae. Their cool soulful group vocals are a nice, gentle way to deliver their political messages of justice, peace and unity. They hope that you will enjoy their music and come away from their concert full of positive vibes. It's hard not to feel good after listening to reggae.”

— Aaron Carnes, sanjose.com

“Ancestree, formed in early 2010 is determined to deliver the Highest Quality Live Reggae music with a NICE blend of harmonious vocals, BASS and DRUM, Guitars, Horns, Keys and Percussion. With pure positive vibrations and Rasta Rebel Lyric, ANCESTREE is carrying on the musical tradition of REGGAE, "teach the youths dem culture!" Ancestree’s roots are here in Santa Cruz.”

— Beach Flats Community Center, Day of the Child, Beach Flats Community Center

“From genetically modified seeds in the song Monzanto to discriminatory laws in Tears, the band continues to deliver the news in beautiful three-part harmonies, continuing their commitment to non-violent, social change through music.”

— Foot Hill College, Tuesday Times

"Roots reggae band Ancestree blends vocals, guitars, keyboards and a big bass-and-drum rhythm section for a sound inspired by the likes of Pink Floyd and Bob Marley."

— Rebecca Coupe Franks, Santa Cruz Sentinel

“ Enjoy authentic Jamaican cuisine, arts & crafts, children’s activities, live music from featured DJs and artists like T-Rosemund and The Italsouls, Ancestree and Irae Divine, or just spend the day sampling island-inspired cuisine and getting your “passport” stamped to enter into a raffle for free concert tickets and gift certificates.”

— Sandra Song , SF FUN CHEAP

“At San Franiciso’s very first all ages Reggae Festival at the Filmore Plaza, August 27th, 2011, I fell in love with a humble reggae band from Santa Cruz, California. Their songs captivate me with the soulful melody, instrumental details and universal, empowering, spiritual lyrics. I very much appreciate the strong, lyrics in Spanish. I was fortunate enough to meet the rhythm guitarist/ vocalist, Tomas Gomez. His aura is golden. I’m so inspired when one’s life’s work is to build community and share the power of love in humanity. Ancestree provides powerful music full of passion and purpose that is for and by the people.
