notes

BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND! Volume 2 is our first recording and comes closest to representing the true essence of BadaBing. Plus, Volume 2 includes our most requested song: "That's What I Like About the North", a funny parody of what it's like for Northerners to live in the South!

Delightful. Think up-to-date Andrews Sisters, complete with shimmying shoulderpads and saucy jazzbo attitude. Fiddle, trumpet and drumkit swing big time. Love, love, love this. Album is called "Volume II." You need this music in your life.
Robert Oermann, Music Row Magazine
----------
Mugavero puts his cards on the table in no uncertain terms with "That's What I Like About The North." (Braves' fans should skip that one.) The intricate harmonies of lead vocalists Maureen Mohr and Rebecca Sayre are, along with Mugavero's writing, the centerpiece of the album. And if you have the pleasure of seeing them live, you'll know it's not studio trickery. The ladies are tight. Hell, the whole band in tight. Their love of jazz is not confined just to the north, however. There are elements of New Orleans jazz and Dixieland rages here and there, with Dellaposta's muted trumpet leading the way.
Neil Fagan, Performing Songwriter

    I think that BadaBing BadaBoom just might be my favourite band. I love the lyrics..they make you smile. Great music for driving, wonderful for calming stress. My fave on this album is Nothing Rhymes..the words are so clever the tune so infectious.

    I first bought this CD in 1998, and have bought about another 5 copies since then - I keep lending it to my friends and not getting it back! The best part about this album is the incredible songwriting - That's What I Like About the North is a great backhanded slam on the south (what would you expect from a bunch of Yankees playing swing in Nashville?), and How Bad Do I Wanna Feel Better is a really clever use of words. Hands down, though, nothing beats Nothing Rhymes for pure originality. This CD has been in my car and on my A-list for many years - one of my all-time favorites.

    Saucy swing band for those who didn't get to live through the first wave. With lovely Andrews Sisters-style vocals, "Django Reinhardt meets the Judds," Badabing Badaboom certainly lives up to its name with a bubbly zinger of part swing band, part dixieland and early jazz influence as well as a touch of early country, sown with sweet fiddles, shuffley guitar, sassy trumpet and sassy drumset. And just when you think you have them pegged, they turn up the heat just a little more and the hot oil really begins to sizzle. Straight-up shimmying tunes.
