Of all the bands that carved out a niche in the bouncy bubble that was the late-’90s swing revival, few garnered more mainstream love than the Cherry Poppin’ Daddies. The Eugene, Oregon, band scored big with their 1997 single, “Zoot Suit Riot.” But to their dedicated fans, the Daddies are far more than a one-hit wonder. The group was founded by guitarist and singer Steve Perry in 1989 and has always incorporated a diverse range of influences in its eclectic sound, from doo-wop to punk to ska to jazz.
