The Secret Sauce of SNACKTIME [Episode #166]
SNACKTIME at Sea.Hear.Now 2023
The “funkalishous” Philadelphia band – SNACKTIME – took time from their busy tour schedule supporting Portugal. The Man to talk with us recently and the hour we spent chatting felt like only 10 minutes. During this very enjoyable conversation, Yesseh Furaha-Ali (vocals, alto sax, percussion) and Sam Gellerstein (sousaphone) shared backstories aplenty about the band’s history, their deep reservoir of musical influences, how they built up their following and what it felt like performing on the Sand Stage at Sea.Hear.Now last year.
Not satisfied with being defined by music alone, SNACKTIME is a heavy hitter with giving back to the community, supporting those in need and modeling a lifestyle based on spreading love and positivity. Tune in today to become hooked on a sound so unique, that it’s impossible to compare this band to any other. And as great as their music is ... we promise that their live show will knock your socks off and shake you to the core. Make sure you catch them opening for Portugal. The Man on February 23 at The Stone Pony in Asbury Park, NJ. Click here for the full tour schedule.
