What is a DOMA, you arrrrsk?
That silly little acronym stands for Dallas Observer Music Award. Snarky Puppy has been nominated again this year under “Best Jazz Act,” which I always get a kick out of. I guess they didn’t have enough crop for a “Best Crazy Singer-less Combination of Too Many Genres To Even Be Enjoyable” category.
We’ve won the last two years in the same category, so do us a flavor and help bring home the 3-peat.
Last year's DOMAs may have gotten a little out of control...
Speaking of Texas, we’re playing a really cool, really FREE show at a beautiful brand new amphitheater in Arlington (betwixt Dallas and Fort Worth) this Sunday, June 20. The lineup is going to be super fun… Shaun Martin, both Mark Lettieri AND Chris McQueen on guitar, Nate-O, Sput, and old-school Snarky Puppy saxophonist Clay Pritchard. I can’t wait. Want to know more about it? Glad you asked.
And one more time, I have to say how happy I am that we’re a part of the Ropeadope family. This has got to be the coolest label around… in preparation for the release of our new live CD/DVD “Tell Your Friends” (now slated for September to allow for increased promotion), these easy-going but hard-working dudes are drumming up brand new T-shirts, stickers, buttons, and even pimping out this ghetto website. I can’t wait to see what happens.
On a completely unrelated note, I’ve been seeing these ads on the subway in NYC for some TV show, and apparently there’s a famous dude that looks exactly like Snarky Puppy part-time violinist Zach Brock.
I bet this guy can't shred
This guy totally shreds
I’m just sayin.
The DOMAs were only out of control for a minute — We were fine as soon as yall stamped the fire out of my hair and threw that Vitamin Water on my dress.
Here’s to continued victory!
Isn’t that Oz guy Oprah’s personal Turkish doctor?
Any chance we get a Snarky Puppy look-a-like thread going?
Great show last night! Loved it, raved about it, blogged it. Can’t wait till the CD release and the next DFW show.
