Thanks to Miss Melissa from 97.3 (the Wolf) in Grand Island, NE, for getting me started with Snarky Puppy. One amazing video later, a couple of repeat plays and I’d purchased the equally wonderful full-length CD/DVD combo Ground Up, which included Thing of Gold as the lead off track.

Snarky Puppy isn’t so much a band as a collective of musically diverse musicians that are extremely accomplished in their craft.  The music is awe-inspiring, mesmerizing and leaves you strangely satisfied, yet wanting more.  I can only imagine what it must be like to be one of the 40 few, that are allowed to experience their live recording session (see video).

The purchase for Ground Up included not just the merchandise that will ship soon, but a digital download of the entire long-player in several lossy and lossless formats.  Check out Snarky Puppy by visiting their web site, and purchase this music! Every time I listen, all I can say is “Wow!”
