Description

Recorded and filmed live with a studio audience over four nights in the Netherlands, We Like It Here captures the band at its most explorative point in its career, in both composition and improvisation. The film created alongside the album (included in the CD/DVD combo, and on Snarky Puppy's YouTube page) also contains over an hour of interviews, behind the scenes tour footage in Europe, and alternate solo takes from the recording sessions.^[2] The track "Lingus" includes a well-regarded solo on the synthesizer by Cory Henry.^[3][4]
