Influences
Louis Prima, Louis Jordan..(in fact anybody called Louis), Dean Martin, Bobby Darin, Glenn Miller, Tequilla and any doo-wop band named after a car or a sea-bird...to name just a few influences. This list could well grow before your very eyes...watch this space...excited? You bet!
Sounds Like
Sounds like eh? Charades on the internet? Interesting. OK..here goes..
3 words..first word, one syllable. Sounds like 'sing'.
Second word..one syllable. Sounds like er...'song'.
Third word. 3 syllables. Sounds like ...mmm..'radio' but not quite. Hmmm tricky one this....Let me think..... I knew I should have left this box empty!
Despite being almost entirely unable to dance themselves due to a mix of shrapnel injuries, lame excuses and the fact they've always been making the music rather than dancing to it...The Ding Dong Daddios bring you the most dance-able tunes from the swing heydays of the '40s and '50s.
Yes indeedy! The Daddios sing about Love, Food, Faraway Places (Istanbul, not Constantinople..which is far away if you start from Dover), Animals, Public Transport (particularly trains..choo choo, chatanooga to name but 2), Five Guys Named Mo, Mack the Knife, and a whole lot more.
These guys will bring you the finest Jump, Jive and Swing fuelled by the love of good music and invariably a full stomach. It's not often the word 'infectious'can be used with a positive slant, but the D.D. Daddios can spread joy wherever they go. Come and see them now!
Remember...There ain't no party like a Daddio party!
I hope that you all enjoyed Saturday night at the Hep Cats Holiday weekender as much as we all enjoyed your performance. Totally gone man - crazee man crazeee!
