Big Bad Voodoo Daddy

The 1996 film Swingers brought the West Coast swing revival to the rest of the country. Big Bad Voodoo Daddy were the house band for the Brown Derby club in the film, and they were quickly signed to a major label as a result. Like other retro bands -- Cherry Poppin' Daddies, for instance -- their sound seems to owe as much to old cartoons, rock 'n 'roll, and Oingo Boingo as to '40s (or even '50s) swing music.
