Event Description:
Since they formed about 20 years ago, the Cherry Poppin’ Daddies have made it their mission to veer from genre to genre, choosing to follow their own muse. Their ability to bend the boundaries has been tempered and informed by an adherence to a tradition grounded in Tin Pan Alley, swing music and the great American songbook. Cherry Poppin’ Daddies has always prided themselves on their craft and musicianship, superior skills that have allowed them to excel in whatever format they choose to tackle. “We see ourselves as coming from a Swing, Jazz and Tin Pan Alley tradition that is almost an extinct lineage in music,” said Steve Perry, the band’s longtime leader. “We aspire to be worthy of carrying the torch but we have always striven to create our own modern, iconoclastic version.”
