Amazing live performances by Snarky Puppy

Over time, I’m going to post some videos from live performances by various artists that I find amazing. First out is a band that I got recommended by a friend not so long ago: Snarky Puppy. They’re an instrumental jazz ensemble with a huge and changing line up, originating from Denton, Texas.
I’ve picked two videos. The first one is featuring Lalah Hathaway. The song is called “Something”, which originally is by Brenda Russell. The performance won a Grammy Award in the Best R&B Performance category in 2004. Notice when she starts singing multiphonic towards the end:

You can find the song on the album Family Dinner Volume One.
The second performance is featuring Laura Mvula & Michelle Willis. It’s called “Sing to the Moon”, and is from “Family Dinner vol. 2”:
