Big Bad Voodoo Daddy Tickets Information
The name Big Bad Voodoo Daddy may seem odd or even vulgar to some people, but to aspiring guitarist Scotty Morris, this was the destined title for his new musical group.
The band was originally formed in Los Angeles in 1989 with leader Scott Morris and Kurt Sodergren as two "original" members, with the rest of the band joining later on. It concentrated on the swing of the 1940s and '50s, playing at clubs and lounges in their early years. After playing for a few hundred people, they started the Super Bowl XXXIII half-time show in 1999. Their notable singles include "Go Daddy-O" and "You and Me and the Bottle Makes Three Tonight". The band conglomeration of jazz, swing, and blues influences.
Morris met a legendary blues musician Albert Collins and revealed that this meeting was clearly destined explaining.He signed my poster 'To Scotty, the big bad voodoo daddy.I thought it was the coolest name I ever heard on one of the coolest musical nights I ever had. So when it came time to name this band, I didn't really have a choice. I felt like it was handed down to me."
The band launched two CDs, Big Bad Voodoo Daddy and Watchu' Want for Christmas? under their own label (Big Bad Records) before the break when their songs "You & Me & The Bottle Makes Three Tonight (Baby)" and "Go Daddy-O" were featured in the 1996 cult comedy Swingers.
From there they were signed by Capitol Records and they released Americana Deluxe, This Beautiful Life, and Save my Soul. The band continued their tours, performances and album releases, with one high point being their appearance at the 1999 Super Bowl half-time show. Over the last few years, Big Bad Voodoo Daddy has experienced great success playing on the Pops programs of American symphony orchestras. Most recently, the band played during halftime of the 2006 Capital One Bowl. In the movie The Wild They have a new song for the movie.
(Voodoo Daddy Scores a Gold).
As a self-titled independent, their first album was completed in 1994. Their first performance arena, the Ventura theatres, was habitually packed with local loyal fans. These boys loved the comfort of playing locally and one member admitted,It's great to know that you're playing in front of people you buy your groceries with and do your laundry with
They were placed on the map as musical artists and gained national fame for their outlandish uniforms with pinstriped suits and brimmed hats. Being in costume during live performances, their appearance displayed a sense of realism to their jazz music, perpetually inspiring audiences to swing dance in the crowd. They were eventually signed by Capitol Records where they went on to release a total of three more albums. In May of 1998, their first single was played on the radio. To augment their increasing fame, Bid Bad Voodoo Daddy was featured as the soundtrack to gymnast Carly Patterson while representing the United States in the 2004 Olympics. Carly captured the gold in style while performing her routine to the hit Mr. Pinstripe Suit. The band members were awestricken at this experience and Morris commented.I literally wrote it in a hotel room of the Holiday Inn in Times Square. So it's pretty classic that it's gone from that to Carly winning the gold." Also occurring at this point in time the band released their self titled album as a live CD and DVD which was well received by the public adoring the band for their amazing live performances.
