Snarky Puppy are just about to set off on their UK-wide tour, including a sold out gig in Manchester. A couple of years ago we invited them to lead a music residency for a bunch of emerging musicians as part of our Wall of Sounds programme with Band on the Wall. Since then, the group of musicians have gone on to form their own band Hans Prya, and some of them now perform with Snarky Puppy.
