Part Sinatra, part Elvis, part Louis Prima, part Louis Armstrong, and part Michael Buble, the Daddies have appeared on The Tonight Show, The Late Show with David Letterman, Dick Clark’s New Years Rockin’ Eve, The View, and were the sole musical act featured in a tribute to Duke Ellington in an hour long special on the American Movie Classics channel.
