After first gaining mainstream popularity with their breakthrough performance in "Swingers," Big Bad Voodoo Daddy have gone on to become one of the most popular touring bands on the road today.
Having put the swing craze that briefly dominated Alternative radio in 1998 behind them, BBVD now carries on the tradition of the legendary Big Bands and orchestras by touring non-stop, performing over 100 concerts each year around the world. Like the Glen Miller Orchestra, Benny Goodman, and the Count Basie Big Band, BBVD's energetic performances draw enthusiastic audiences of all ages in cities around the world. And as a twist, the band has recently begun collaborating with symphonies in more than 15 cities, including the Los Angeles Philharmonic (at the Hollywood Bowl), Air Force Symphony Orchestra in Washington, DC, the Hartford Symphony in Hartford, CT and the Atlanta Symphony. Future symphony shows are scheduled in San Diego, Nashville, Kansas City, Omaha, Buffalo and Cincinnati.
This year they deliver their Christmas gifts early, reworking yuletide classics like "Blue Christmas," "Jingle Bells" and "We Three Kings" into rollicking Big Band extravanganzas, and throwing in a few new songs of their own.

Big Bad Voodoo Daddy
It’s also possibly the timeliest and most welcome album of the year -- bringing a much-needed high-voltage jolt of winning, feel-good energy to a country slogging through tough times that may be getting tougher…exactly the way that Calloway’s music did in the Depression-era America...
