Big Bad Voodoo Daddy Brings Their Wild & Swinging Holiday Party To Vegas!

Big Bad Voodoo Daddy will bring their trademark big band sound to The Orleans Showroom on December 29 and 30 for “Big Bad Voodoo Daddy’s Wild and Swinging Holiday Party.”

Following the paths of big band leaders like Glenn Miller, Benny Goodman and Duke Ellington, Big Bad Voodoo Daddy’s brassy, upbeat sound has been embraced both by older fans nostalgic for the music of their youth and by legions of younger fans enamored of the elegance and sophistication of the Big Band era.

Big Bad Voodoo Daddy arrived on the music scene in 1993 with their legendary residency at the Brown Derby Nightclub in Los Angeles. In 1996, the band rocketed to fame after performing “You & Me and the Bottle Makes Three (Tonight)” and “Go Daddy-O” in the hit movie, “Swingers.”

Since then, Big Bad Voodoo Daddy’s music has been featured in countless films and television shows, including “Despicable Me” and “Family Guy,” and has even been used for Olympic gymnastic and figure skating routines, including Carly Patterson’s 2004 gold medal gymnastics routine. The group has performed at high profile venues and events including the Billboard Music Awards, the White House and during the halftime shows of both the Super Bowl and the Orange Bowl.

The band has performed on numerous television shows, such as "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno," "Live with Regis" and "Late Night with Conan O’Brien." To date, Big Bad Voodoo Daddy has released ten studio albums, including a Christmas album, “It Feels Like Christmas Time,” in 2013.

The seven-man group is comprised of Scotty Morris, lead vocals and guitar; Kurt Sodergren, percussion; Dirk Shumaker, double bass and vocals; Andy Rowley, baritone saxophone and vocals; Glen Marhevka, trumpet; Karl Hunter, saxophones and clarinet; and Joshua Levy, piano and arranger.

Showtime is 8 p.m. Tickets are available starting from $19.95, plus tax and convenience fees, and can be purchased at any Boyd Gaming Box Office, by calling 702.365.7075 or visiting www.orleanscasino.com.
