From the organizer:
Nearly 2000 shows, 13 albums, 4 Grammy awards, 8 JazzTimes and Downbeat awards, hundreds of master classes at educational institutions all over the world and much more… The legend of Snarky Puppy welcomes us with their latest album Live At The Royal Albert Hall, which has already embraced the Grammy award. While enchanting on the one hand, he is on the way to Istanbul on the other hand! Combining jazz, funk, rock and various world music, the US instrumental ensemble Snarky Puppy will be at Zorlu PSM Turkcell Stage on November 5th! Founded by Michael League in 2004 when he was still a college student in Denton, Texas, Snarky Puppy has an extensive 18-year history of success, where they jumped brand new steps in their careers. The group has managed to take a full rein in the history of music, with a history ranging from their own record companies to collaborations with various artists and even social responsibility projects such as organizing concerts in underserved areas. Snarky Puppy, which made a strong impression with “Family Dinner – Volume One” released in 2013, won its first Grammy award in the category of “Best R&B Performance” thanks to Lalah Hathaway’s successful performance in the song “Something” in the album.
