We love Snarky Puppy, so it was cool to see this video by the Berklee Snarky Puppy Ensemble. The group, with Gaspard Gabriel on bass, performs “Shofukan.”

SFJAZZ shared this video of Snarky Puppy performing “Pineapple” for the SFJAZZ 2024-25 season. Cowritten by trumpeter Mike “Maz” Maher and bassist/bandleader Michael League, the tune appeared on their 2022 album, “Empire Central.”

Kinga Glyk’s new album, “Real Life” is such an enjoyable record. Here’s a live performance of “That Right There,” written by Michael League.

This week we’re checking out the Amitra Woodworm Michael League Signature bass by Bacci Guitars. The Italian-made instrument is crafted with an alder body that’s been affected by wood-boring insects.

I’m digging Kinga Glyk’s new album, “Real Life,” so it was cool to see her drop this live video of her band performing “Unfollower.”

I absolutely love Snarky Puppy’s work with the Metropole Orkest. So it was exciting to see them drop a new video, which came with an announcement. Here’s an alternate take of “The Curtain.”

I’ve been enjoying Kinga Glyk’s new album, “Real Life.” Here’s a great behind-the-scenes clip of the tune, “Unfollower,” which she cowrote with Michael League.

For many years, we’ve had a Christmas tradition here on No Treble, thanks to Steve Bailey and the Berklee Bass Department. The lineup is once again incredible too. Enjoy this 2023 Holiday Retrospective.

Here’s a great video of Nate Smith, Michael League, and Lionel Loueke performing the groovetastic tune, “Farafina.”

Snarky Puppy took the stage at North Sea Jazz 2023. As usual, Michael League and the band delivered an incredible performance, and the audio/video work by the NSJ team is stellar.

Nate Smith dropped another video from his performance at the Montreal International Jazz Festival on July 2nd, and this one is killer. “Unfollower” starts with some gnarly bass by Michael League before the band kicks into a world-class groove.

Snarky Puppy performed at Jazz in Marciac, and they released this live video from the show. Here’s Michael League and the band performing “Pineapple” from “Empire Central.”
