  • The Cherry Poppin' Daddies are an American rock band formed by Steve Perry in Eugene, Oregon in 1988. While the band has gone through numerous personnel changes, only Perry, Dan Schmid and Dana Heitman remain from the original incarnation, with Perry and Heitman being the only two constant members throughout the band's twenty year history. Conceived as a counter against the rising grunge movement of the Northwest, the Daddies played an unconventional lyric-driven mixture of punk rock, funk, ska and swing music, among other styles, attracting a local cult following for their raunchy and frequently controversial performance art-like live shows, which often instigated bans and organized protest. After earning critical praise and awards as a local act and for their 1990 debut Ferociously Stoned, the group began extensive national touring in 1993. They found initial success performing within the third wave ska circuit; their self-produced, ska-influenced third album, Kids on the Street (1996), was distributed by Caroline Records and appeared on Rolling Stone's Alternative Charts. The Daddies experienced international commercial success in the late 1990s as part of the swing revival movement, namely for their 1997 hit single "Zoot Suit Riot" and their major-label compilation album of the same name. Despite prominent media coverage and the double-platinum status of their record, by 2000, the Daddies' mainstream popularity had declined with that of neo-swing. Following a short hiatus, the band regrouped in 2002 to continue touring and recording, independently releasing their fifth and most recent studio album, Susquehanna, in early 2008.
