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. Their Big Band introduces swing to the holidays with swing music and energetic performances that draw enthusiastic audiences of all ages in cities around the world.
Big Bad Voodoo Daddy Big Band Swing Party reworks yuletide classics like “Blue Christmas,” “Jingle Bells” and “We Three Kings” into rollicking Big Band extravanganzas, and throw in a few new songs of their own. “Zat You Santa Claus” and “Rock-A-Billy Christmas” are cool enough to keep a snowman from melting, while “Mr. Heatmiser” (from the ‘70s-era Claymation television special The Year Without Santa Claus) sizzles with hepcat heat.
