Snarky Puppy performs at Mondavi next weekend, get tickets now
Sept. 21, 2023, 7:30 p.m., Jackson Hall, Mondavi Center
Here's a chance to see the performance of Snarky Puppy, a multi-faceted, genre-hopping band.
The Texas-bred/New York-based Snarky Puppy suddenly found itself held up by the press and public as a major figure in the jazz world.
As the Mondavi website describes it, Snarky Puppy isnt exactly a jazz band. Its not a fusion band, and its definitely not a jam band. Its probably best to take Nate Chinen of The New York Times advice, as stated in an online discussion about the group, to take them for what they are, rather than judge them for what theyre not.
If you would like to check out their music ahead of time, you can do so Tickets are available for purchase .
