Snarky Puppy, a Grammy-winning instrumental fusion band, reshapes the landscape of contemporary jazz with their boundary-pushing compositions and electrifying live performances. Formed in Denton, Texas, in 2004 by bassist Michael League, the collective started as a small group of college friends experimenting with different musical styles. Drawing influences from jazz, funk, rock, and world music, Snarky Puppy's sound defies categorization, blending complex rhythms, intricate melodies, and virtuosic improvisation into a cohesive and exhilarating musical experience. Their ever-evolving lineup of talented musicians, ranging from brass and woodwind players to keyboardists and percussionists, adds layers of depth and diversity to their sonic palette. In 2014, Snarky Puppy gained widespread acclaim with their album "We Like It Here," recorded live in the Netherlands. The album's standout track, "Lingus," featuring an electrifying keyboard solo by Cory Henry, became a viral sensation, catapulting the band to international fame and earning them a Grammy Award for Best R&B Performance.
Since then, Snarky Puppy has continued to push the boundaries of their sound, releasing a string of critically acclaimed albums and captivating audiences with their dynamic live shows. Whether performing in small clubs or headlining festivals around the world, the band's infectious energy and virtuosity leave audiences spellbound, transcending genres and uniting music lovers of all backgrounds.
