Snarky Puppy is an American jazz fusion band led by bassist Michael League. Founded in 2004, Snarky Puppy combines a variety of jazz idioms, rock, world music, and funk and has won five Grammy Awards.[1] Although the band has worked with vocalists, League described Snarky Puppy as "a pop band that improvises a lot, without vocals".[2]
