MACC Announces Return Of Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, October 14

Maui Arts & Cultural Center presents a return of Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, the band that brings their signature celebration of jazz and swing music -America's original musical art form - to the MACC's Castle Theater on Friday, October 14, at 7:30 pm.

Tickets go on sale online only to MACC members Friday, September 2 and to the general public Friday, September 9. Special guests opening the show will be Gypsy Pacific. This concert will offer a dance floor for all patrons with orchestra level tickets.

The band's music is a vibrant fusion of the classic American sounds of jazz, swing, and Dixieland, with the energy and spirit of contemporary culture. Big Bad Voodoo Daddy's all-original core lineup includes: Scotty Morris (lead vocals and guitar), Kurt Sodergren (drums), Dirk Shumaker (double bass and vocals), Andy Rowley (baritone saxophone and vocals), Glen "The Kid" Marhevka (trumpet), Karl Hunter (saxophones and clarinet) and Joshua Levy, piano and arranger. Joining them on the road are Mitch Cooper (lead trumpet), and Alex Henderson (trombone).

In 29 years of performances, Big Bad Voodoo Daddy (BBVD) has celebrated jazz and swing music. In fact, the band was named after an autograph by blues legend Albert Collins. Formed in the early 90s in Ventura, California, BBVD has toured virtually nonstop since, performing an average 150 shows a year, and has produced a sizable catalog of recorded music. The band's original horn-infused music and legendary high-energy show introduces the genre to a new and younger generation, while remaining cognizant and respectful of swing music's rich legacy.
