Headed by Snarky Puppy’s multi-Grammy–winning percussion duo of Robert “Sput” Searight & Nate Werth, Ghost-Note is a complete explosion of sound. With an expansive roster of next-level musicians—representing members of Prince, Snoop Dogg, Erykah Badu, Herbie Hancock, Kendrick Lamar, Marcus Miller, Toto, Justin Timberlake, and more—the band is pushing funk music into the future, building on the uplifting, pioneering foundations laid out by the likes of James Brown and Sly & The Family Stone and infusing their fresh take with tastes of afrobeat, hip-hop, psychedelia, world folklore, and more. After forming in 2015, Ghost-Note has already begun to take the world by storm. The group’s two studio albums—2018’s Swagism and 2015’s Fortified—have earned critical acclaim and popular success around the globe, with both albums hitting the #1 spot on the iTunes Jazz Charts. The most recent album Mustard n’onions (2024) via Artistry Music/Mack Avenue Music Group is a complete banger from start to end. Continuing to tour the world after the release of this highly acclaimed album, Ghost-Note is a tour de force of funk with dazzling solos and air-tight arrangements that will have any crowd dancing.
