Casa Loma Jazz Band - Washboard Wiggles
Considered to be the first swing band in the United States, the Casa Loma Orchestra got its start in Detroit as Jean Goldkette and the Orange Blossoms.
.
In 1929 the band was scheduled to play at the exclusive Casa Loma, a new club in Toronto.
Later that year, the band adopted the club's name and set up a corporation, becoming the first cooperative band of its kind.
.
After playing at prestigious venues like New York's Roseland Ballroom and the Glen Island Casino, the Orchestra appeared on the "Camel Caravan" (1933), the first radio commercial series to feature a swing band.
.
After recording for Okeh Records, the Orchestra signed with Brunswick, then simultaneously with RCA Victor, recording under the names Casa Loma Orchestra and Glen Gray Orchestra, respectively.
.
Eventually, the band recorded exclusively for Brunswick, then Decca, under the name Glen Gray and the Casa Loma Orchestra.
Gray, a saxophonist, began fronting the band in 1937 and remained its leader until the group disbanded in 1950.
.
In 1956 Gray came out of retirement to record a popular series of phonograph records for Capitol Records, "Sounds of the Great Bands." He died in Plymouth, Massachusetts in 1963.
