Fresh off their great album release party last Sunday, with the wildest slam-bang finish ever, The Reality are back on the road. Their Funkin’ Righteous tour begins Thursday, March 30th, at Soho Bar & Grill in Columbus GA. They will play 23 dates through a May 7th gig at BMC Balcony Music Club in New Orleans — during Jazz Fest. The tour will visit the Carolinas, Virginia, Tennessee, Kentucky and Ohio before their push to NOLA. Upon their return to the Sunshine State, they will play Florida’s best music showcase, Orange Blossom Jamboree, May 17-20.

This Tampa quartet spread funk, ska, jazz, rock and [insert more stuff here] the same way they spread “Pineapple Salsa,” their big ‘hit’ from new album Car Trouble. You can read the MusicFestNews review of that album here, and also find our review of Rhetoric, their debut album, here.
