The Grammy Award-winning, instrumental fusion band Snarky Puppy has made quite the name for itself with an extensive catalog of live video and audio recordings. Building a dedicated fan base along the way, the rotating “family” of more than 40 session musicians has made some big strides in R&B and jazz in only a few short years.

The group’s most recent release, “We Like It Here,” debuted at No. 1 on the iTunes jazz charts, and their rendition of “Something” with vocalist Lalah Hathaway earned a 2014 Grammy for Best R&B Performance.
