On March 8th, 2013, Snarky Puppy and a host of special guests convened at the Jefferson Center in Roanoke VA. The project was to record a series of live performances in audio and video that would bring attention and benefit to the ongoing work of the center. The Jefferson Center is a non-profit arts organization that is revitalizing a key neighborhood in Roanoke with the restoration of Jefferson High School and the renovation of the Shaftman Performance Hall. The hall brings world class music to the local community through the Music Lab, providing education and recording space for local children.
The Music Lab at Jefferson Center is working daily to pull from every social and economic class of the Roanoke community and create the next wave of real, human musicians. They host low cost or free after-school programs for any interested young people filled with visits by guest artists, private instrumental instruction, and recording training. Wafting out of the little studios and rehearsal rooms on the third floor of Jefferson Center, you can hear Afro-beat in Swahili, hip-hop in Liberian Kreyol, the blues coming from the guitar of a 13 year-old prodigy, and the undeniable sound of young musicians growing. It's a thing that needs to be supported at all costs across this country, and by purchasing this record, you've done it.
A portion of every sale will go to the Music Lab at Jefferson Center.

Exactly as below, tons of confidence from Tony, which enabled him to play super-tasty solos and fills. Lots of very interesting stuff.

[@thebassrogue]

I wish i had this dude's confidence! He plays without second guessing himself, there are no wrong notes for him, just notes that sound cool!

[@steverichardson7971]

What a way to say he is bad😂

[@crazydale1000]

Great slide

[@alansmollen]

[@anshika383]

Can't take no more. my heart is dancing..

[@rovervitesse1]

This blows my socks off

[@joelmikkelsen8296]

I feel like he takes his vocal inspiration From Bobcat Goldthwait. Love it!

[@michaelil2002]

his guitar playing and his singing are made from the exact same material

[@rustyspo0ns]

Gnarly guitar. Could def see the band was enjoying it. :)

[@phunkidruma]

If prince did country funk ...this would be it... SOLO included

[@IllegalCombatAnt]

You guys just blow me away ... every time.

[@Adelsadok1]

[@c.ebenfranks4473]

[@LoganKramerMusic]

So good

[@TheMrFunktastic2]

This is some the last waltz shit, right here

[@lilrosspv]

Michael League, Mononeon, and Henrick from Dirty Loops are 3 of my favorite bass players ever!

[@R.J.1]

Word. Thundercat, Marcus Miller, Bootsy Collins, etc

[@fretplec5326]

Brilliant!

[@theinfinatewisdom]

that was fantastic tony!

[@SanjeevRokaha]

Real taste of music,no words to admire it!

[@Rudare916]

I wasnt really a fan of this song until I watched the DVD with commentary. I now have a greater appreciation for it. But his other song on the DVD??? CRAZY!!!!!!!

[@onixtheone]

Oh Please get Derek Trucks and Susan Tedeschi on a family dinner album!! PLEEEEEASE!!

[@SooHungry]

I don't think so.. But.. Let's check. Singer/Guitar is Tony Scherr Hofner Bass is Michael League (MD) White Strat is Bob Lanzetti Regardless.. Music is Amazing.

[@isaacBCM]

waiting waiting waiting for my DVD to arrive :D

[@elrafa782]

Didn’t know this Tony, sorry. So many emotions. Love these noshred guitar parts. Thanks

[@helena.3472]

🔥

[@theobenjamin]

I love this!!

[@Grayham4]

This dude is mind blowing

[@Cashpar]

nice one!

[@BakisProductions]

it seems to me that this singing style is relevant to drunken style Kung Fu..!!! Tony is awesome :-)

[@superzebrafromfrance]

+Bakis14 This is the best comment I have ever read.

[@calebrobertson5041]

Except he gets more sober as he goes

[@oitrewq]

at 1:01, the video shows distortion from too much destabilizing the shaking. hahaha..

[@tokyobaseball]

Jazzy blues meets Michael Bay's style direction

[@denisecoreasantos5]

músicos incríveis!!!!

[@udomatthiasdrums5322]

still love it!!

[@Jotzeph89]

um no... michael is in fact playing a hofner bass. he's playing it with a plectrum. Michael plays the baritone guitar in Too Hot Too Last with Lucy Woodward.

[@sammy2nd]

sometimes country is good especially if its disguised as a soul music

[@blackgravy4996]

Sam Ramos

[@dwiatmaputra]

he reminds me of Dave Matthews vocal lol

[@AaronChaseDrums]

Van Morrison?!?!?!

[@70bruton]

no.

[@ropeadope99]

shipped yesterday

[@Alex8grade]

Idk why I kinda thought his vocals would automatically be trash just because his guitar playing was stellar, but his voice really fit the song and I loved the whole thing.

[@andrewthemorley]

I hope Cory Henry is wearing beats ironically.

[@mrwest1168]

how is that ironic?

[@OseEigbobo]

+R-sama beats have horrible sound quality

[@mrwest1168]

Depends on the model

[@bradosanz4479]

They dont have "horrible" sound quality, (he's wearing Beats Studios) just overpriced. Since it's simply for monitoring, perfect sound fidelity isn't necessary. Beats are just fine for what they're being used for in this situation.

[@kinggimped]

The high-end Beats Studio models (which Cory is wearing) actually have pretty great sound quality. If you don't believe me, go and try a pair. The common misunderstanding of Beats having shit sound quality is totally wrong... the issue with them is they're just ludicrously overpriced for what they are. People will buy them because of the marketing and because they care more about what they look like and following a trend than about sound fidelity. Low-end Beats have OK sound quality, it's just that for the price they're charging you could get some Audio Technica or Sennheisers that would totally blow them out of the water. Audiophiles will never buy Beats because they could buy a better pair of headphones for much, much less. But Beats deserve to be slammed for being the Apple of headphones (ridiculously overpriced, marketed as 'cool', more focused on style than specs), not for having 'horrible sound quality'.

[@carol4918]

Great. Reminds me of a male version of Ricki Lee Jones...

[@AddSeymourJr]

Good analogy!

[@RogueElectro.]

i didn't know peter griffin sang with snarky puppy

[@brunoaramos]

E Bangalter lol lol lol

[@SooHungry]

[@miguelernestocastanedajuar5180]

Paloma, "La Chelona" Rodríguez en la guitarra...

[@StewieFan411]

anyone else get dave matthews vibes? nevertheless you can really feel the passionate singing and guitar playing, and snarky puppy does a stellar job backing this artist

[@jimifopp145]

reminds me of Gary Moore

[@laxatives]

I want to watch this video, but youtube shit the bed and it won't load for me, ever.

[@xavier.piar105]

Wonder what tuning is this

[@pedrofunes1278]

She turned away :(

[@BIGGboyee515]

ooooh mike with the violin bass... Jay Turser or hofner?

[@ReneWirtz]

Looks like a Rickenbacker, no?

[@BIGGboyee515]

everybody made copies so it could be but i doubt it, this bass looks too old to be a rick.

[@ReneWirtz]

Hey Myreon, just received my copy of the Family Dinner album and it states: "[Michael League plays] a really pretty Alleva-Coppolo 5-string bass in addition to his 1967 Hofner and 1976 Fender Precision[]." :-)

[@BIGGboyee515]

ahh so it is a hofner bass thanks!!!

[@blackgravy4996]

Myreon Smith Dee

[@KGBDrums]

How many people have that shirt....@0:08

[@nspector]

+KGBDrums I'd love to have that shirt....I think I'm gonna buy one now.
