Snarky Puppy is a Brooklyn, New York-based instrumental fusion band led by bassist, composer and producer, Michael League. Formed in Denton, Texas in 2004, the band features a collective of nearly 50 musicians, referred to as "The Fam" on their recordings and tours. The musicians perform on a variety of instruments including guitars, pianos, keyboards, woodwinds, brass, percussion and strings. Many of the current and former band members were once students at the University of North Texas.

The band released their debut album "Live at Uncommon Ground" in 2005 and began touring extensively after their second album "The Only Constant" in 2006. Snarky Puppy's first four albums were released under Sitmom Records. Since their fifth album "Tell Your Friends" (2010), the band has been signed to Ropeadope Records.

Snarky Puppy's leader, Michael League, was interviewed and written about in the 2010 book release "The New Face of Jazz: An intimate look at today's living legends and the artists of tomorrow" by Cicily Janus.The author cites League's self-termed music as "jafunkadansion" for its genre-bending qualities of instrumental and dance music. Cicily Janus also comments the "group Snarky Puppy is one of the most inventive in sound and funk since Maynard Ferguson's fusion years."

The band's forthcoming album was performed and recorded live in October 2013 at the artistic compound "Kytopia" in the city of Utrecht. It is slated for release in January 2014.
