Snarky Puppy

Since winning their first of five GRAMMY Awards in 2014, Snarky Puppy has become one of the most in-demand ensembles of their generation, with bassist and composer Michael League leading a collective of 20 musicians and composers who rotate through their ranks, in ever-changing fresh combinations. The announcement of their Soraya debut aligns with another milestone, as Snarky Puppy was the cover feature of DownBeat magazine’s February 2026 issue, demonstrating the band’s widely recognized talent. Their November 2025 album, Somni, will be featured in the concert which will open with a special performance by the award-winning CSUN Jazz “A” Band.
