He tours this material internationally with his quartet, the Mark Lettieri Group.
Playing in the vibrant Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex gospel and R&B scene led Lettieri to join Snarky Puppy in 2008, and he remains active with the band as a writer, arranger, session player, and touring member. His work with the group has resulted in five GRAMMY Awards: Best R&B Performance for "Something" feat. Lalah Hathaway in 2014, and Best Contemporary Instrumental Album (Sylva in 2016, Culcha Vulcha in 2017, Live at the Royal Albert Hall in 2021, and Empire Central in 2023).

COUCH
“Couch is kicking it old school with a delightful, modern twist… [They] are single - or seven-handedly - breathing new life into the pop scene.” - Sheesh Media
Boston-based band Couch injects each project with their signature flavor: expressive horns, warm vocals, and bubbling synths—crafting an oasis of joy for musicians and non-musicians alike.
From their formation in 2019 until spring 2021, members of Couch were scattered across the country; they tackled the challenges of being a “long-distance band,” writing and even recording virtually. Despite these challenges, they celebrated the release of their debut EP, “COUCH,” in February 2021 as well as three singles and a 20-city headline tour in 2022.
In 2023, Couch released their sophomore EP, “Sunshower”, accompanied by a two-part 40-city headline tour, performances at Boston Calling and Levitate, and a sold-out UK tour.
