Alternative rock band Sponge is an American was formed in Detroit, Michigan in 1992 by vocalist Vinnie Dombroski, guitarists Mike Cross and Joey Mazzola, bassist Tim Cross, and drummer Jimmy Paluzzi. Their song “Neenah Menasha” caught the ears of A&R person Pablo Mathiason and the band signed with The Work Group (a Columbia Records subsidiary) in the fall of 1993. The following year, Sponge released the now iconic, Platinum-selling debut album, Rotting Piñata, to global, critical and commercial success.

Rotting Piñata remains a fierce and unforgettable slice of Detroit‑driven alternative rock, and its 30th anniversary highlights just how powerfully it has endured. Powered by Vinnie Dombroski’s raw, elastic vocals and the band’s blend of grunge grit, melodic hooks, and post‑punk swagger, the album delivered two defining ’90s anthems—“Plowed” and “Molly (16 Candles Down the Drain)”—tracks that dominated radio and MTV and helped propel the record to platinum status. Yet the album’s depth is what cements its legacy: songs like “Neenah Menasha,” “Giants,” and “Rainin’” showcase a band capable of atmosphere, tension, and emotional punch, carving out a sound that stood apart from the Seattle wave while still capturing the era’s urgency.

Three decades later, Rotting Piñata feels remarkably fresh—its riffs still hit hard, its choruses still soar, and its Detroit attitude still cuts through with clarity. It remains not only Sponge’s defining statement but one of the most distinctive and enduring albums of the 90s rock landscape, a record whose impact continues to echo long after its initial explosion.

Melody Trucks and the Fitzkee Brothers don’t just play Southern rock—they ignite it. Melody, daughter of Allman Brothers drum legend Butch Trucks, has carved her own lane with a voice that can preach, plead, and roar when the moment calls for it.
The Fitzkee Brothers bring the heat, fusing blues-soaked guitar work with groove-heavy rhythms and fearless improvisation that pulls from Southern rock, funk, and jam-band traditions.

Adding another powerful dimension is Chris Vitarello, a Blues Hall of Fame guitarist known for his lyrical, inventive playing and his time with Butch Trucks & The Freight Train Band, the Bruce Katz Band, and touring with Vanessa Collier. His presence creates a rare bridge between generations—connecting the music of Melody’s father’s era with the sound of what comes next.
Together, this lineup delivers a night of original music, deep grooves, and improvisation rooted in tradition but pushing forward at full speed.

April 2026, marks the 33 year anniversary of Big Bad Voodoo Daddy’s remarkable arrival onto the music scene. Since its formation in the early nineties in Ventura, California, the band has toured virtually nonstop, performing on average over 150 shows a year, and has produced a sizable catalog of recorded music, with sales of over 2 million albums to date. Early on, during their legendary residency at the Derby nightclub in Los Angeles, they reminded the world, in the midst of the grunge era no less, that it was still cool to swing. The band, co-founded by singer Scotty Morris and drummer Kurt Sodergren, was at the forefront of the swing revival of that time, blending a vibrant fusion of the classic American sounds of jazz, swing, and dixieland, with the energy and spirit of contemporary culture.

Big Bad Voodoo Daddy’s all original core line-up includes Scotty Morris (lead vocals and guitar), Kurt Sodergren (drums), Dirk Shumaker (double bass and vocals), Andy Rowley (baritone saxophone and vocals), Glen "The Kid" Marhevka (trumpet), Karl Hunter (saxophones and clarinet) and Joshua Levy (piano and arranger).

Big Bad Voodoo Daddy’s efforts to promote and revitalize swing music have taken shape as much more than a simple tribute. Taking inspiration from the creators of this uniquely American art form, the band’s original horn-infused music and legendary high energy show introduces the genre to a new and younger generation while remaining cognizant and respectful of the music’s rich legacy.
