Forgotten Tribe with Naomi Pulver, and DJ Dthree Racks
Music, Community, and the People Who Make It Happen
February’s show at Clear Vibes House Concerts was a beautiful reminder of what happens when artists and community gather with intention. The night featured an unforgettable performance from Forgotten Tribe with special guest Naomi Pulver, while DJ Dthree Racks set the tone with welcoming beats before and after each set. The room was filled with a mix of familiar faces and new attendees — exactly the kind of energy that makes these shows feel alive and meaningful.
Forgotten Tribe: Unity Through Sound
Forgotten Tribe is a band of brothers blending original Latin-fusion, hip hop, soul, and reggae into a sound that’s both uplifting and electrifying. The five-piece lineup featured: Khiry Jurrell (vocals, trumpet, guitar), Ray Sarmiento (drums), General Spazz (bass), Omar Aguilera (keys), and Luke Retherford (guitar).
Their message centers on unity, awareness, justice, and love — values they don’t just sing about but actively embody. A highlight of the night was their signature crowd interaction: the band chanting “More Music!” and the audience echoing it back. It’s a tradition they bring to every show, and in a living-room venue, it felt especially powerful — a shared moment that turned listeners into participants.
Naomi Pulver’s Quiet, Captivating Power
Naomi Pulver’s performance created a stunning shift in atmosphere. Her intimate indie-pop songwriting and luminous voice drew the audience into stillness. Known for crafting emotionally honest songs rooted in empathy and storytelling, she explores deep interpersonal themes that invite listeners into perspectives they might not otherwise encounter.
Between songs, she shared personal stories with vulnerability and warmth, creating an immediate sense of trust. Guests were visibly moved — not just by how she sounded, but by how she made them feel.
Setting the Vibe
Throughout the evening, Dthree Racks kept the flow seamless with carefully chosen tracks that made arrivals feel relaxed and transitions feel natural. A rapper, producer, and DJ whose studio is based in the Little Flower neighborhood, his presence added another layer of local artistry to the experience.
About the Co-Branded Showcase
This concert was publicly presented as a co-branded event with Musical Family Tree (MFT). Previously, the organization expressed full intent to expand Local Music Showcases to support local music development and opportunities. While the name partnership was in place, the booking, planning, and execution of the entire evening were independently handled to ensure the event came together successfully.
Historically, for nearly a decade, when MFT initiatives or events needed momentum, Kati, host of Clear Vibes House Concerts, was an advocate who stepped forward to make sure things actually happened. She coordinates logistics, is out in the community supporting local artists, and consistently does the behind-the-scenes work required to bring ideas to life. Though she is no longer collaborating with the organization, her impact on past efforts is widely recognized by those who’ve seen that work firsthand.
The February show stands as proof that meaningful live music experiences don’t come from titles or branding. They come from effort, follow-through, and commitment to artists and the community.
Why Your Support Matters
House concerts thrive because people believe in them. They exist because someone selflessly opens their doors, artists share their gifts, and a community chooses to show up and listen.
If you value intimate shows, authentic artistry, and grassroots music culture, consider supporting Clear Vibes House Concerts as a donor or ongoing sponsor. Support directly sustains future performances, uplifts musicians, and keeps spaces like this alive for everyone who needs them.
Thank you to everyone who attended February’s concert — you helped make it something special. More music soon.
