Snarky Puppy is an instrumental fusion band based in Brooklyn, led by composer, producer and bassist Michael League.
The band's debut album, The Only Constant, was released in 2006. Like the two albums that followed, it was released on Sitmom Records. From the fifth album, Tell Your Friends (2010), the band chose Ropeadope Records as its label.
We Like It Here was recorded live in Utrecht in October 2013; it was released in February 2014, debuting at number one on the iTunes jazz chart. On 26 January 2014, Snarky Puppy, together with Lalah Hathaway, won the Grammy Award for Best R&B Performance for their rendition of Brenda Russell's song Something, from Family Dinner - Volume 1.
In 2016, the band released the album Culcha Vulcha, which won the Grammy Award for Best Contemporary Instrumental Album.
