Big Bad Voodoo Daddy
in
Ann Arbor
Cast as the house band in the 1996 movie hit "Swingers," Big Bad Voodoo Daddy led a revival of the swing sound, getting a new generation of dancers on their feet. Since then, the West Coast band has released several albums and appeared everywhere from the Tonight Show to the White House. They even wrote and performed the theme for the TV hit "Third Rock from the Sun."
Save My Soul (2004), the newest album from Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, pays tribute the wellspring of American music and America’s favorite musical city, New Orleans.
Bandleader Scotty Morris launched a three-piece jazz, blues and swing combo back in 1989. It included drummer Kurt Sodergren, Dirk Shumaker on string bass, Andy Rowley on saxophone, Glen "The Kid" Marhevka on trumpet, Karl Hunter on saxophones and clarinet, and Joshua Levy on piano. After a poster signed by guitar legend Albert Collins read "To Scotty, the big bad voodoo daddy," Morris felt that was the name destined for this group.
From 1994 to 2001, the band realized it was time to shift gears and focused on an overseas market and worked on new music. They released Big Bad Voodoo Daddy (1994) on Big Bad Records. Americana Deluxe (1998) and This Beautiful Life, (1999) followed on Interscope Records.
After becoming recharged by several European and Asian tours, BBVD went to New Orleans to play Jazz Fest and became inspired for their fourth album, Save My Soul, released in 2003. The result was a deep, bluesy album that had instant classic appeal. BBVD continues to prove why they are the best at what they do. For more information, visit www.bbvd.com.
