Ghost-Note, With Members of Snarky Puppy and More, Extend U.S. Tour Through 2025

Ghost-Note has been hitting the road all year, and they’re not slowing down. The funk-fusion outfit has unveiled a new set of tour dates for the fall and winter that will take them from coast to coast in the United States.
The dates begin with a short run in August before resuming with two nights at the Blue Note in Los Angeles, California, on November 4th and 5th. After a few more nights in California, they’ll fly to New York to play the Brooklyn Bowl. The band will then make their way into the Midwest, eventually ending on December 14th in Cleveland, Ohio.
Ghost-note is a collective led up by Snarky Puppy members Robert “Sput” Searight and Nate Werth. The rest of the players have been band members Prince, Snoop Dogg, Erykah Badu, Herbie Hancock, Kendrick Lamar, Marcus Miller, Toto, Justin Timberlake, and more. Bassist Justin McKinney, aka Jay McK, holds down the low end with authority and an impeccable sense of groove.
See the band perform in this clip from KUVO with “Move with a Purpose,” “Synesthesia,” and “JB’s Out.”
