The Washington Post: DC Jazz Festival act Snarky Puppy used the forest as inspiration for new album ‘Sylva’

By: Marcus J. Moore

Published: June 11 

“The idea of recording with an orchestra was a dream I’ve always had,” League says. “It’s such a unique, homogenous sound ... I just want people to listen to something that inspires them ... I think it’s completely and utterly important to make people feel something when you create music.”

"Michael League’s long-term dream has been to take a composer’s personal vision into a bigger and more cinematic soundscape without abandoning Snarky trademarks such as catchy soul-jazz horn hooks, loose improv and dancefloor funk. There are six movements, each inspired by forests around the world that have left a deep impression on League. "


Durham Herald Sun: ART OF COOL: Snarky Puppy ensemble featured at annual festival

"With Snarky Puppy, listeners get both [swing+expression]. “I think people … want to see a band challenging themselves and having fun,” said Michael League, bass player, composer and band leader. “We genuinely have a great time,” which is different from a jazz group “who look like they’re playing at a funeral,” he said."
