CL RECOMMENDS
CL Critic Hal Horowtiz Recommends: Wait, what? These guys are still around? While most associate California’s BBVD with the neo-swing movement that blipped on MTV in the 90s, the zoot suited guys have never stopped recording or touring. Still fronted by founder/singer Scotty Morris, this 30th anniversary gig features music from 2017’s well-received album of covers from Louis Jordan, Louis Armstrong and Louis Prima. Those three iconic jazz swingers crafted the zippy big band mold Voodoo Daddy continues to mine. Mock them as has-beens if you like, but they’re guaranteed to deliver a rollicking show. - HH
