Singer-songwriter-guitarist Scotty Morris, leader of Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, the little Big Band that helped define the lounge scene as it was featured in the hit film Swingers . “We're an alternative to retro. We're high-octane nitro jive – loud, wild, total edge. Back in the Forties, swing was rock-n-roll, the black juke joint music white guys heard and said, ‘This is swingin'. What we do is wild and swingin', but it's our own modern version of swing.”



Morris sums it up by saying “I love our music and the fact that the same guys have stuck together for more than 10 years. We get better and better as the years go by and we have as much fun now as we ever did. There aren't any rules and I never questioned what my instincts told me. We just went for it, and it's felt right from day one.”
