bob reynolds tour

The last four years have brought dramatic changes for Snarky Puppy.

After a decade of relentless touring and recording in all but complete obscurity, the Texas-bred/New York-based quasi-collective suddenly found itself held up by the press and public as one of the major figures in the jazz world. But as the category names for all five of the band’s Grammy® awards would indicate (Best R&B Performance in 2014, Best Contemporary Instrumental Album in 2016, 2017, 2021, and 2023), Snarky Puppy isn’t exactly a jazz band. It’s not a fusion band, and it’s definitely not a jam band. It’s probably best to take Nate Chinen of the New York Times’ advice, as stated in an online discussion about the group, to “take them for what they are, rather than judge them for what they’re not.”

Snarky Puppy is a collective of sorts with as many as 25 members in regular rotation. They each maintain busy schedules as sidemen (with such artists as Erykah Badu, Snoop Dogg, Kendrick Lamar, and D’Angelo), producers (for Kirk Franklin, David Crosby, and Salif Keïta), and solo artists (many of whom are on the band’s indy label, GroundUP Music). At its core, the band represents the convergence of both black and white American music culture with various accents from around the world. Japan, Argentina, Canada, the United Kingdom, and Puerto Rico all have representation in the group’s membership. But more than the cultural diversity of the individual players, the defining characteristic of Snarky Puppy’s music is the joy of performing together in the perpetual push to grow creatively.

The band was formed by bassist and primary composer Michael League in 2004, starting inconspicuously enough as a group of college friends at the University of North Texas’ Jazz Studies program. Three years later, a serendipitous intersection with the Dallas gospel and R&B community in Dallas transformed the music into something funkier, more direct, and more visceral. It was at this time that the group absorbed musicians like Robert “Sput” Searight (drums), Shaun Martin (keyboards), and Bobby Sparks (keyboards), and were heavily influenced by legendary keyboardist Bernard Wright (Miles Davis, Chaka Khan, Marcus Miller).

Michael League

Bass, composer, bandleader.

Michael League is a 5-time Grammy ® Award-winning, 5-time nominated producer and musician based out of Catalonia, Spain. He is the creator and bandleader of instrumental music ensemble Snarky Puppy and world music group Bokanté, founder of the record label and music curation source GroundUP Music, and artistic director of the GroundUP Music Festival.

Michael attended the University of North Texas' jazz studies program for 4 years, then moved to nearby Dallas for another 3 years, where he worked with some of the most influential figures in modern gospel, R&B, and soul music, and was mentored by legendary keyboardist Bernard Wright (Miles Davis, Chaka Khan) before moving to Brooklyn, New York, in 2009, where he spent 9 years, then relocated to his current home of Catalonia, Spain. As an instrumentalist and producer, he has worked with a diverse range of artists in pop (Laura Mvula, Lalah Hathaway, Joe Walsh, Michael McDonald, Rufus Wainwright), folk (David Crosby, Chris Thile), gospel (Kirk Franklin, Walter Hawkins, Marvin Sapp, Israel Houghton, Myron Butler), jazz (Terence Blanchard, Esperanza Spalding, Joshua Redman, Wayne Krantz, Chris Potter), electronic (Squarepusher, Daedelus, Tokimonsta), and world music (Salif Keïta, Eliades Ochoa of the Buena Vista Social Club, Fatoumata Diawara, Bassekou Kouyate, Susana Baca, Kardeş Türküler, Väsen).

As a sophomore in college, Michael formed the instrumental ensemble Snarky Puppy. As producer, primary composer and bandleader for the group over the last fifteen years, he has earned three Grammy awards and played over 1500 concerts on six continents. In 2016, he started the band Bokanté. Blending influence from blues, rock, Caribbean, and West African styles, the group includes an all-star cast of musicians from 5 different continents. Bokanté spent 2017 touring around the world in support of their debut album, Strange Circles. Their second album, What Heat, a collaboration with the Metropole Orkest under the baton of Jules Buckley, was released in fall of 2018 and nominated for “Best World Music Album” in the 2020 Grammy Awards.

GroundUP Music, formed in 2011, has expanded from independent record label (home to albums from David Crosby, Charlie Hunter, Becca Stevens, Cory Henry, Banda Magda, and many more) to live event curation, launching the annual GroundUP Music Festival in 2017 in Miami Beach, Florida. It has played host to artists like Béla Fleck, Esperanza Spalding, Andrew Bird, The Wood Brothers, Robert Glasper, Concha Buika, Terence Blanchard, Joshua Redman, Jacob Collier, Tank and the Bangas, Chris Thile, Knower, and Pedrito Martinez, among many others.

Michael is passionately committed to music education and outreach, having given clinics and masterclasses at over 200 schools around the world. In 2020, alongside GroundUP Music Festival Director Paul Lehr, Michael formed the GroundUP Music Foundation, which seeks to advance music education incentives throughout the world.

Jennings started playing the trumpet at age 11, and by 15 he was already playing professionally. In high school he was selected to the Texas All-State Jazz Ensemble both sophomore and senior years and was selected for the High School Grammy Jazz Ensemble, which performed at the 44th Annual Grammy Awards in Los Angeles, CA. Jennings auditioned as a college freshman and was selected for a jazz soloist chair in the world renowned One O'clock Lab Band at UNT.

Live reviews

I had the pleasure to hear Bob playing in a Big Band setting and although I had the feeling he feels more comfortable in smaller settings, the show was fantastic! Bob Reynolds is one of the smoothest saxophonists out there and alongside the Big Band this was a fantastic combination. The sound was awesome, his playing amazing and all in all it was an incredible concert experience.

I even had the chance to quickly chat with him after the show and he’s a super nice guy, very humble and I’ll certainly be one of the first guys getting a ticket in case he’ll be playing near my place again..

Report as inappropriate

Absolutely amazing, the entire set was great. Bob's tone is as always sublime and the quartet in general are outstanding. Personally I really enjoyed Shaun on drums,he killed it. His sense of time is insane and his left hand is to die for.

Bob reynolds tickets.

Bob Reynolds is an American jazz tenor saxophonist and Grammy Award-winning member of the band Snarky Puppy. Widely known for his work with both Snarky and John Mayer, he is a prolific composer and recording artist with eight top-selling solo albums to his credit. The New York Times called him “a self-assured saxophonist and an unassuming yet effective composer.” An independent recording artist, Bob’s albums showcase his melodic improvisational style, tuneful songwriting, and, as the LA Times put it: “hip-swiveling” grooves. Bob’s 2013 album ‘Somewhere In Between’, a seamless blend of jazz, blues, rock and pop, reached #1 on iTunes’ jazz charts. In 2017 he released the albums Guitar Band and Hindsight and released Quartet in 2018.

Born in Morristown, New Jersey in 1977, Reynolds grew up in Jacksonville, Florida, where he first started playing saxophone at age 13. Although he listened to a range of music as a kid, by his late teens he was a dedicated jazz student. After high school he honed his skills at Boston’s Berklee College of Music, where he mentored with George Garzone, Hal Crook, and others. Bob is a passionate educator and in-demand clinician. He co-founded an annual retreat for saxophonists and, through his Virtual Studio, he helps musicians become confident improvisers. Bob lives in Los Angeles and shares insights on balancing a music career with raising a family through his popular YouTube vlog.

“A self-assured saxophonist and an unassuming yet effective composer…” – NEW YORK TIMES

“…Reynolds flexes an assured hand with melding hip-swiveling jazz and funk as a bandleader.” – LA TIMES

“Some of the freshest, most compelling, and most soulful music I have heard recently. Bob Reynolds is an amazing musician, with something very exciting and original to say.” – Joshua Redman, Grammy-nominated saxophonist

“Bob is one hell of a saxophonist! His sound is rich and his execution is effortless.” – Michael Brecker, Grammy-winning saxophonist

Best bets from golf experts for 2024 U.S. Open

Westgate SuperBook golf oddsmaker Jeff Sherman and VSiN host Wes Reynolds give their best bets for the U.S. Open, which tees off Thursday at Pinehurst No. 2.

When Scottie Scheffler isn’t arrested during a tournament, he’s virtually unbeatable.

At least that’s been the case in his last eight PGA Tour starts. Scheffler has five wins, including the Masters and the Memorial, and has finished second twice in the sizzling stretch.

The world’s top-ranked and most unflappable golfer settled for eighth place at the PGA Championship after getting arrested before the second round. The driving-related charges were dropped last month.

Scheffler is +325 at the Westgate SuperBook to win the U.S. Open, which tees off Thursday at Pinehurst No. 2, making him the shortest favorite to win a major since Tiger Woods in 2009.

Rather than lay such a short price in a field of 156 players, handicapper Wes Reynolds, co-host of VSiN’s “Long Shots” golf betting podcast, recommends a wager on Scheffler to finish in the top five.

“I played Scheffler -120 top five just like last week at the Memorial,” said Reynolds (@WesReynolds1). “Couldn’t get there 3-1 or less on an outright, but top five or even a heavy juiced top 10 is probably the best way to play him.”

Scheffler is -137 at Station Sports to finish in the top five and -230 at Circa Sports to place in the top 10. He has finished third, second and seventh in the last three U.S. Opens.

Reynolds and Westgate SuperBook golf oddsmaker Jeff Sherman also made Las Vegas resident Collin Morikawa one of their best bets to win this week.

Collin Morikawa, 17-1

Morikawa took second at the Memorial on Sunday, finishing a stroke behind Scheffler, after placing fourth in his previous two starts, including the PGA Championship. He also tied for third at the Masters.

“He’s in top form right now. He’s one of the hottest golfers in the world,” Sherman said. “He’s got some good U.S. Open recent history, too. He should really be in the mix.”

Morikawa finished 14th, fifth and fourth at the last three U.S. Opens.

Here are Reynolds’ other best bets, with comments:

Viktor Hovland, 23-1

“The Norwegian has some previous success on Donald Ross designs having won the FedEx Cup at East Lake last year and finishing tied for second in the 2023 PGA Championship at Oak Hill.”

Cameron Smith, 42-1

“The 2022 winner of The Open Championship at St. Andrews has seemingly been a bit out of sight and out of mind since joining LIV Golf.

“He still sprays it a bit off the tee, but Pinehurst No. 2 is a setup where he may not be all that penalized for that, considering the width of the fairways and the fact that the Australian certainly grew up playing out of bunkers plus the sandy waste areas that are commonplace at Pinehurst. Smith leads LIV in scrambling and is still a bit of an artist around the greens.”

Hideki Matsuyama, 44-1

“The 2021 Masters champion gained in all strokes gained categories last week at the Memorial and ranked second in the field for scrambling on the way to a tie-for-eighth finish.”

Tommy Fleetwood, 45-1

“The Englishman is a three-time top-five finisher (2017, 2018, 2023) at the U.S. Open and tied for third in the Masters this year.

“Fleetwood is an accurate driver and one of the best around the greens, and this Pinehurst setup is best for his chances to win a U.S. Open.”

Tony Finau, 75-1

“He tied for eighth last week at the Memorial, where he gained in all strokes gained categories, but hit only 50 percent of his greens and just 51.8 percent of the fairways.

“However, the ball striking has not really held him back. It has been the putter for the better part of this season that has been the issue, but these fast greens could be a great equalizer as everyone has to putt defensively.”

Here are Sherman’s other best bets, with comments:

Sahith Theegala, 57-1

“Week in, week out you might find him at 30-1 or 40-1, and here he’s on the other side of 50-1. There’s relative value on him at this time.”

Tyrrell Hatton, 71-1

“He’s usually the fourth favorite on LIV. There is relative value in the odds at (71-1) with the way he’s playing this season and what his odds have been.”

Here are some futures bets handicappers believe have some value now that the dust has settled on the 2024 NFL draft.

The Masters is a tournament unlike any other for sharp bettors. Here are a few golfers Las Vegas handicappers recommend looking at.
