Snarky Puppy – Groundup [CD]

Standard CD reissue of this 2012 album from the New York-based instrumental fusion band. With the release of the GROUND UP (and their 2010 release TELL YOUR FRIENDS), Snarky Puppy has gone from an underground secret to one of the most internationally respected names in contemporary Jazz. Over the last four years of touring, the group has gained a reputation for putting on a live show unparalleled in energy, virtuosity, and musicianship. They seamlessly fuse a deep knowledge and respect for the Jazz tradition with sonic and conceptual innovation in a way that is able to reach the most critical – or most carefree – audience.
