Snarky Puppy: «People understand our music better by watching us play».»

LONG-FORM INTERVIEW, Antoine Bernhard and Max Moeschler | Snarky Puppy is undoubtedly one of the greatest contemporary music groups. Founded in Texas in 2004, the three-time Grammy Award-winning band explores a unique musical genre at the crossroads of jazz, funk, R&B, and so many other styles. As part of the «Autumn of Music» event organized by the Montreux Jazz Festival, we had the chance to meet the three band members, who were at the Montreux Palace for the occasion: Michael League (bass and bandleader), Bill Laurance (keyboards), and Justin Stanton (trumpet and keyboards). It was an exclusive conversation in a magnificent setting! Here, we’ve tried to capture the most interesting parts of our discussion.
