Snarky Puppy
« on: January 06, 2016, 08:20:08 pm »
Hey y'all ! First post and I though I should celebrate my arrival in this community by sharing some (non electronic) music I like.

Some people may know them already as they are making quite a bit of buzz in the jazz/fusion (or acoustic, whatever...) scene. Their music really opened my mind about band, acoustic acts and I went to see them playing at L'Olympia in Paris with an orchestra and, MY GOD, that show was MENTAL really ! Anyway that track is the first song from their 2014 album (We Like It Here), but you really could listen to all their discography as everything they do is PURE GOLD ! You should really watch the video too, as it does a great job at showing their energy (as well as the energy from the public) plus the fun they're having at playing their shit, which is priceless IMO. I Really hope I can bring some people to enjoy their music or help people find different inspiration.

Other standout tracks :
Snarky Puppy - Lingus
Snarky Puppy & Metropole Orkest - The Curtain
Snarky Puppy - Thing Of Gold
All of their discography...

NB : Forgot to mention they won a GRAMMY in 2014 for "Best R&B  Performance". Kudos to them !

I love snarky puppy. Cory Henry's solo in Lingus is easily the greatest improv keyboard solo I have ever heard. I wish I was there for the recordings, they look so fun.

Wow I love seeing other SP fans, those guys are so amazing. Seen them live 3 times now and they blow my mind every time still. Also, really cool to see someone who likes the old SP stuff (my favorite track of all time is probably Thing of Gold, probably because of my addiction to Moogs). I also love all the solo stuff they are doing: Bill Laurance, Cory Henry, Shawn Martin, FORQ, Ghost Note, all have albums that are ridiculously cool. Sorry I'm just so excited to see other Snarky Puppy fans in the forum!

Also so excited for Family Dinner 2, have you seen the trailer?

I don't think the man can take a solo that isn't the best solo ever played

Wow, happy to see I've managed to gather some SP fans around here (Though it doesn't really surprise me) ! Those guys are such a gift to the musical landscape !

Yeah, I've seen it and I'm quite excited for it, but it's gonna be hard for them to level up after Sylva with the Metropole Orkest, although these guys have never failed to impress me so far !

Oh man, that solo used to bring tears to my eyes more than once.

Great to see this here. I saw Snarky Puppy last year, and it was the best concert I've been to in years.

A whole stage of serious musicians playing together and working their ass off.

Old school at its best.

Haha yeah I would have to agree, they have never failed to impress me. I love how they keep pushing the envelope! So refreshing and exciting.
