Snarky Puppy
The following description was submitted by the event organizer.
An acclaimed fusion-influenced jam band, Snarky Puppy have built a loyal following with their adventurous blend of jazz, rock, and funk. Led by bassist Michael League, the Texas group emerged in the mid-2000s and garnered buzz with albums like 2006's The Only Constant, 2010's Tell Your Friends, and 2013's Family Dinner, Vol. 1, which took home the Grammy for Best R&B Performance for their cover of the Brenda Russell song "Something" featuring singer Lalah Hathaway. More accolades followed, including further Grammy Awards for 2015's Sylva and 2016's Culcha Vulcha, the latter of which also topped Billboard's Jazz Albums chart. The band again reached the Top Ten of the jazz charts with 2019's Immigrance and picked up their fourth Grammy Award for 2020's Live at the Royal Albert Hall. In 2022, they paid tribute to their Dallas-area roots with Empire Central.
