In 1989, Scotty Morris, jaded by life as a young studio guitarist, decided to launch a three-piece jazz, blues and swing combo. The trio included drummer Kurt Sodergren and was named Big Bad Voodoo Daddy after a fateful meeting with blues guitar legend Albert Collins at one of his concerts. "He signed my poster 'To Scotty, the big bad voodoo daddy'", Morris explains. "I thought it was the coolest name I ever heard on one of the coolest musical nights I ever had. So when it came time to name this band, I didnt really have a choice. I felt like it was handed down to me."

In the years that followed, Morris and Sodergren formed the rest of the band which includes Dirk Shumaker on string bass, Andy Rowley on saxophone, Glen Marhevka on trumpet, Karl Hunter on saxophones and clarinet, and Joshua Levy on piano.

Howdy Guys and thanks for the kind comment. Your sound is awesome and you put out such a casual vibe, too. Well, when you're great, makes it looks easy, don't it? I'm stoked about my latest upload "Town With A Broken Heart". It's what happens when you confuse love with the freedom of drivin' an 18 wheeler. Be well my friends and stay tuned for some new uploads on my page. Thanks for the friendship, Dexter
