Armed with a powerful and poignant message, new representatives of the hidden beauty and multi-dimensional spirit of Los Angeles, One Tribe Nation releases its new album “We Are the One”, the band’s musical reflections of  the good, the bad, and the immense potential of America.

“We Are The One” includes the politically charged title “The Enemy”, the love song“Don’t Let Me Down”, “The Only One”, “We Are The One”, “San Francisco”, “Room To Breathe” , “Free My Pain”, “Becky’s Song”, “Mended Heart” and the outspoken “It’s Time”, a track whose performance on the steps of City Hall during Occupy LA inspired a video by renowned filmmaker Leonardo Bondani, whose body of work includes Maldita Vecindad, Tijuana No, Kid Frost, and El Vuh.

Although the band was formerly a solo project for guitarist Sanders, this new record is true collaboration in which band members, Sanders, (vocalist) Quetzal Guerrero, (bassist) David Filice, and (drummer) David Cowan contributed in a more creatively democratic process with the guidance of (producer) Chris Baseford, who’s worked with such heavy weights as Tommy Lee, John 5, and Rob Zombie, delivering the band’s diverse vision with a powerful driving punch that’s sure to keep listeners rocking and even dancing as they listen.

They also brought in session players Dave Schulz (Goo Goo Dolls, Berlin) on keys and well known and respected percussionists Chuck Prada (Sergio Mendes, Michael Jackson, Kelis) and Daniel de Los Reyes (Jennifer Lopez, Sting).  The result is an honest portrayal of America today: A mosaic of love, strength, politics and its local repercussions, and the personal power to speak the truth and effect change starting with the individual.

“We really wanted to make music with substance that is relevant and inspirational to the listener,” says Quetzal Guerrero. The singer says that growing up as multicultural/multilingual American has always helped him understand and connect with different demographics of people.

“In our new album I believe we do exactly that, through our wide range of rhythms, styles and lyrics, One Tribe Nation attempts to find a common ground with everyone and connect with them on a musical level,” says the vocalist.

One Tribe Nation’s “We Are The One” will be available along with bonus material & giveaways exclusively on http://onetribenation.com on March 1, 2012 and released nationwide on May 1, 2012.
