Tunes We Like To Play
Here's a set list from one of our gigs. The band likes to play old classics and new swing revival tunes. Bands like the Cherry Poppin' Daddies and Big Bad Voodoo Daddy are helping to bring swing music to a new audience.
The Cherry Poppin' Daddies recently performed at the Lionel Hampton Jazz Festival and put on a terrific show. Zoot Suit Riot written by Steve Perry, frontman for the band, is one of our favorite swing revival tunes.
