"Serious voodoo from the masters of contemporary swing" The jazz-blues-and-swing combo that touched off a whole new craze for classic American dance music in the 1990s is back with a summer party to beat the band! Big Bad Voodoo Daddy took its name from an autograph blues guitarist Albert Collins scrawled on a poster for BBVD leader Scotty Morris in 1989. With thousands of appearances in the U.S. and overseas over the last decade, the band became known for delivering a good time more reliably than just about anybody else. Almost anything can happen in a Big Bad Voodoo Daddy concert--such ass the world's only male-vocal version of the Blue Lu Barker classic "Don't You Feel My Leg." They just backed the inimitable Dean Martin on his new "Forever Cool" release, and they've got a new album on the way themselves. Don't you dare miss it!
