Big bad voodoo daddy upcoming events
Big Bad Voodoo Daddy is an American contemporary swing revival and jazz band, formed by Scotty Morris in 1993, hailing from Ventura, California, U. S. Band leader Scotty Morris formed Big Bad Voodoo Daddy after meeting blues guitar legend Albert Collin at a concert, and of whom signed his poster with ‘ To Scotty, the big bad voodoo daddy’. Alongside Kurt Sodergren, Morris inspired by the swing of the ‘40s and ‘50s, the pair honed their skills playing in clubs and lounges throughout Ventura, California, and soon made a name for themselves amongst the kitschy cocktail scene. Big Bad Voodoo Daddy released two albums in the early ‘90s “ Big Bad Voodoo Daddy” and “ Watchu’ Want for Christmas?” before earning their break on the 1996 film soundtrack for “ Swingers”. The film featured the singles “ You & Me & the Bottle Makes 3 Tonight ( Baby “ I Wan’na Be Like You” and Go- Daddy- O” as well as a onscreen cameo appearance from the group. The band subsequently signed with Capitol Records, who issued the group’s third full-length “ American Deluxe” in 1998, followed by “ This Beautiful Life” in 1999. With the swing revival in full flow, Big Bad Voodoo Daddy made an appearance at the Super Bowl XXXIII, sold over three million records and been featured in over 60 films and TV shows. In an attempt to expand their sound out of the dying swing market, the band released “ Save My Soul” in 2003, which included jazz, funk and Cajun elements. In 2004, “ Everything You Want for Christmas”, a live CD/ DVD was released, followed four years later by the heavily jazz-induced “ How Big Can You Get?: The Music of Cab Calloway”. Big Bad Voodoo Daddy continued in the jazz direction and released the album “ Rattle Them Bones” in 2012, and subsequently their third Christmas collection of songs “ It Feels Like Christmas Time” in 2013.

Since their arrival on the music scene in 1993 in a legendary residency at Los Angeles' Brown Derby nightclub, Big Bad Voodoo Daddy's irresistible live show and aggressive, musically perceptive approach has proven them over time to be the singular standout among the numerous bands that launched the 90s Swing revival. The seven-man group forged a massively successful fusion of classic American sounds from Jazz, Swing, Dixieland and Big- Band music, building their own songbook of original dance tunes and sixteen years later, BBVD is a veteran force that, to this day, adds new fans by the roomful every time they play. BBVD's originals rocketed the group into its first phase of stardom when You & Me & the Bottle Makes 3 Tonight ( Baby) and Go Daddy- O were featured in the 1996 indie film landmark Swingers. Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, named famously after an autograph by Blues legend Albert Collins, sold more than two million copies of the albums Americana Deluxe and This Beautiful Life and received national critical acclaim while the band's music has appeared in over sixty movies and television shows.

Rattle Them Bones The year 2015 marks the 22nd anniversary of Big Bad Voodoo Daddy’s remarkable arrival onto the music scene. In its first years, having secured their legendary residency at The Derby Club in Los Angeles, they reminded the world—in the middle of the grunge era, no less—that it was still cool to swing, big band style. Today the high-energy nine-piece ensemble continues the party and takes things to the next level with the release of Rattle Them Bones. The follow-up to the much-lauded 2009 release, “ How Big Can You Get?: The Music of Cab Calloway,” Rattle Them Bones still urges their millions of fans worldwide to shake and move to their inimitable grooves while also expanding their horizons with new musical inspiration and influence.
