Last weekend, a number of top-notch performers descended on the luxurious Spirit of Suwannee Music Park for the one and only AURA Music & Arts Festival. Among them was recent Grammy winners Snarky Puppy, the jazz/funk collective known for their incredible compositions and musicianship.
Snarky Puppy hit the main stage last Saturday, March 5th, ultimately calling on a number of special guests throughout the performance. Beloved percussionist Mike Dillon joined in during “Gx,” while Jennifer Hartswick and Natalie Cressman brought their horns out for a riveting rendition of “Quartermaster.” What a show!
Thanks to Butch Almberg, we have full audio from the performance. Tune in and enjoy below:
