DESCRIPTION:ON SALE AT THE UO TICKET OFFICE IN THE EMU\n\nIn the past few y
 ears Cherry Poppin’ Daddies have become the kind of band that you would 
 want to book if you were throwing a soiree at the Gatsby mansion. Penning 
 elegant\, lush\, pitch perfect arrangements of much of the great American 
 songbook\, from Cole Porter to Frank Sinatra\, the Daddies have surprised 
 many - likely familiar with them from the early 90s - whose limited exposu
 re to the band undoubtedly consists of an image of spray painted vans care
 ening across the US as an iconoclastic\, misfit part of an already margina
 lized punk/ska scene.\n\nIn fact\, the Daddies have of late put together a
  number of excellent swing/jazz sit down theatre-type shows\, each tailore
 d to a different era of swing music: a “Jazz Age Lawn Party” consistin
 g of roaring 20s and Cotton Club era material\, a swanky “Live at the Sa
 nds”-type tribute to the Rat Pack\, and a World War 2 “Christmas Cante
 en” show that is part Tiki\, part Benny Goodman and comes across like a 
 radio broadcast from Guadalcanal circa 1942. The sheer craftsmanship and p
 rofessional attention to detail of these performances have shed new light 
 on this criminally underestimated band.\n\nOn top of being a show band non
 pareil\, the Daddies have an “oh by the way” double platinum ability t
 o pen original material that\, while influenced by a history of American p
 opular music\, is wholly modern lyrically\, and itself stands up as classi
 c. The 1997 release of “Zoot Suit Riot” set the bar for the neo-swing 
 movement of the era in terms of originality\, lyrical depth\, and flat out
  musical sales.
