Description

The stage is sure to sizzle when Sugah Daddy is in the house! This energetic 8-piece band delivers the best swing, boogie and jump blues. As one fan said "Sugah Daddy: "Boogie-Funky-Big Band-Woogie...with a Bottom"

Sugah Daddy's versatility is evidenced by the talents of 5 fabulous lead vocalists, a poppin' horn section, and the band's utilization of up to 15 different instruments. Sugah Daddy's vast selection of songs combined with their presentation and energy make them one of the best known swing bands in Southern California.

As you can tell from our recently released CD all members of Sugah Daddy have significant studio/stage experience and we've been blessed to join together in such a talented, fun & energetic group.

Sugah Daddy has recently had the opportunity to share the stage with Rod Piazza And The Mighty Flyers, Tommy Castro, Poncho Sanchez, John Mayall And The Bluesbreakers, Marcia Ball, Mitch Ryder & the Detroit Wheels & Charlie Musselwhite.

Whether it is a concert in the park, wedding reception, a show at a club, a corporate event or party, or backyard barbecue, Sugah Daddy is sure to get you on your feet dancing!

Here's what one of our most recent clients just sent us after his corporate gig at the Pechanga Hotel/Casino:
"Everyone loved you guys! You exceeded my expectations. All night I had people coming up to me and complimenting your band. When the horns went into the audience, I felt like I was at a Vegas show. Very cool.
Your attention to room dynamics, crowd vibe, etc...everything, was absolutely top-notch.
Thank you from us all to all of you!

Feedback

  • I hired Sugah Daddy for my wedding at the Hyatt in Huntington Beach. Many of my guests praised the band and a few who had a very long trip home stayed very late just to hear more music from Sugah Daddy. The band was extremely courteous and professional, and even learned to play a Korean folk song at our request. Sugah Daddy is a great band and a great value considering their very reasonable fee. I highly recommend Sugah Daddy. -- Jae L, Huntington Beach, CA, 5/9/2009
  • Great band, very professional!! Our guests LOVED them, I'm still hearing great feedback on "the band". I would highly recommend using Sugah Daddy - they got our crowd moving!!!! -- Nancy S, Ramona, CA, 6/26/2010
  • Wow what a band! They knocked everybody's socks off this New Year's Eve. I was a little afraid at first to book a band off the internet for my large gala on NYE - I worried that they wouldn't get the crowd going. Sugah Daddy quickly got rid of all my fears by getting the whole party started and keeping the crowd dancing until midnight. The singing was brillant and the trumpeter walked out into the audience to everybody's amazement. Everybody left the party with a huge smile on their face and I've had about 10 people in the last day ask me who they were, how much I paid for them, and if they would play at their own party. That's when you know you booked a good band! -- Karmen M, Del Mar, CA, 12/31/2010
