Jazz / Fusion / Jazz Funk / Electric Jazz / World Fusion

The second studio album from Snarky Puppy, The World is Getting Smaller features two live drummers (Rob Avsharian and Steve Pruitt) panned left and right (as well as a guest appearance from master percussionist Jose Aponté), and marks a compositional departure from The Only Constant. It was recorded as most of the band was leaving college at the University of North Texas in 2007.
Hailing from the unassuming Texas town that produced Roy Orbison, The Eagles, Brave Combo, and Blood, Sweat, & Tears, Snarky Puppy is spreading its infectious blend of jazz, soul, and world music to an audience hungry for something creative and inspiring. Made up mostly of former music students from the highly esteemed University of North Texas (affectionately referred to as "the Juilliard of the South"), the band effortlessly blends a strong sense of musicality and virtuosity with raw, organic musical instincts. The 9-piece group is doing something very relevant, and something very honest- they're making music as a generation immersed in diversity. Bjork, Dave Holland, D'Angelo, Wayne Krantz, Pat Metheny, Lettuce, and Radiohead resonate within the compositions to form the unified, unique, soulful sound that is unmistakably Snarky Puppy. The group was formed in 2004 by award-winning bassist and composer Michael League, and immediately gained the support of a large, diverse audience. The group has released two albums and one live, full-length DVD on SiTMoM Records to heavy critical acclaim. In summer of 2007, Snarky Puppy added legendary keyboardist Bernard Wright to the lineup as the sound of the ensemble has continued to grow and mature. Outside of Snarky Puppy, the band members have performed with some of the biggest names in jazz and popular music, including Miles Davis, Dave Brubeck, Sting, Eddie Gomez, Maria Schneider, Roberta Flack, Dave Douglas, Phil Woods, Marcus Miller, Maynard Ferguson, Bill Holman, Morcheeba, Headhunters, Chaka Khan, Jimmy Cobb, Marc Johnson, Slide Hampton, Jimmy Heath, Benny Golson, "Snooky" Young, Lenny White, and countless more. Snarky Puppy is maintaining a heavy tour schedule while promoting their second record, "The World is Getting Smaller."

"Simply put…. Amazing! Great fresh instrumental music at the highest levels." –chazz Frichtel (Michael McDonald)

"Excellent f*ing music" –andre 3000 (Outkast)

The Pup's magic lies in their union of strong technical ability and hot buttered groove that seems effortless and always intensely funky. Drawing equally from the worlds of jazz fusion and funk and R&B, the sound is sprawling, and the musical influences are wide and many. On "Intelligent Design," the drum patterns mimic a drum machine and the floating melody performed by slide guitar and muted trumpet brings Scandanavian groups like Jaga Jazzist and Nils Petter Molvaer to mind. Solos can trigger comparisons to Weather Report, Parliament, and Funkadelic in a matter of measures. "The World is Getting Smaller," the title track to the group's second album, bridges the gap between Spanish chord movement and the bouncy groove of the infamous tumbao rhythm of Cuban music. Justin Stanton gave an impressive introduction to this composition on solo trumpet; a graduate student at UNT, he is filling in for the regular trumpeter Jay Jennings who is spending the summer on a world tour with Dallas cult phenomenon The Polyphonic Spree. Snarky Puppy possesses a talent in negotiating the world of instrumental music with ease and style. –the Jupiter Index (concert review).
