For more than three decades, Big Bad Voodoo Daddy has been the driving force behind the modern swing revival, and on June 12, they bring their electrifying live show to Paramount Hudson Valley Theater. Formed in the early ’90s in Ventura, California, the band burst onto the scene during the height of the grunge era, boldly reminding audiences that it was still cool to swing. With over 2 million albums sold, more than 3,000 live shows, and an average of 150 performances a year, BBVD has built a reputation as one of the most dynamic and enduring live acts in American music. Co-founded by frontman Scotty Morris and drummer Kurt Sodergren, Big Bad Voodoo Daddy blends the timeless sounds of jazz, swing, and Dixieland with a contemporary edge that feels as fresh today as it did at their legendary Derby nightclub residency in Los Angeles. Their horn-driven originals and high-octane performances have lit up stages from symphony halls to national television, including appearances on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, Dancing with the Stars, and the Super Bowl XXXIII Halftime Show. Their breakout moment came with a featured appearance in Swingers, which introduced their infectious sound to audiences nationwide. More than a nostalgic tribute, Big Bad Voodoo Daddy’s mission has always been about revitalizing and expanding America’s original art form. With their original core lineup still intact and their signature brass-fueled energy stronger than ever, the band continues to introduce swing to new generations while honoring its rich legacy. After 32 remarkable years, they show no signs of slowing down—so get ready for a night of unstoppable rhythm, sharp suits, blazing horns, and a dance-floor spirit that will have the Paramount swinging all evening long. *As a reminder, no outside food or drink permitted in the venue. Any patron found with outside alcohol, is subject to removal. Backpacks and large bags are not permitted inside of the venue. All guests are subject to bag checks and security wanding upon entry.

The Woodstock Experience – Back to the Garden 1969 brings the music, spirit, and soul of the legendary Woodstock era roaring back to life. Founded by Gary Adamson, this powerhouse ensemble of seasoned, nationally touring musicians are all multi-instrumentalists and dynamic lead vocalists, uniquely equipped to capture the astonishing range and depth of the music that defined a generation. More than a concert, this is a celebration of peace, love, and the revolutionary sound that forever changed popular music. Audiences will be transported straight to Max Yasgur’s farm as the band faithfully recreates the iconic sounds of Woodstock’s most legendary performers—from the harmonies and guitar fire to the raw, soulful vocals that shaped classic rock. Featuring music made famous by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Santana, The Who, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Joe Cocker, Jefferson Airplane, The Band, and many more, the show pays tribute to the artists who made Woodstock the ultimate rock festival. What truly sets Back to the Garden 1969 apart is its immersive, full multimedia theatrical experience. Period costuming, vintage lighting, evocative video, authentic sound bites, and compelling storytelling combine to recreate not just the music, but the moment—the cultural upheaval, the communal energy, and the magic of the late 1960s. From nostalgic Baby Boomers to curious Gen Zers, this is not your typical tribute band—it’s a tribute to a moment in time. So grab your tie-dye and love beads and celebrate Woodstock at the Paramount on June 20. *As a reminder, no outside food or drink permitted in the venue. Any patron found with outside alcohol, is subject to removal. Backpacks and large bags are not permitted inside of the venue. All guests are subject to bag checks and security wanding upon entry.
