About Sweet Daddy Cool Breeze

Sweet Daddy Cool Breeze, a Chicago-style boogie and blues band, was formed by Wally "Sweet Daddy" Greaney in 1990. Through the years, Sweet Daddy has developed a loyal European following in Germany, France, Spain, Switzerland, and Austria touring overseas for over twenty years. Back home, the band toured regularly up and down the East Coast and the Mid West until 2008. The fall of the economy in 2008 took (expired link). off the road. With two girls in college a full time job was needed. Fast forward to 2018 and Sweet Daddy is looking forward to continuing to work at a successful Blues career which has already spanned over thirty years. He's recorded with the likes of Matt "Guitar" Murphy from the Blues Brothers, Jaimoe - founding member and drummer for the Allman Brothers and Ken Johnson - drummer for James Cotton. Wally "Sweet Daddy" has also worked with John Kay (Founder & Lead Singer of Steppenwolf ) recording a DVD that was released in June of 2004 titled John Kay & Friends Live at The Renaissance Center. "Sweet Daddy" has shared the stage with blues legends Albert Collins, Buddy Guy, James Cotton, KoKo Taylor, Junior Wells, Taj Mahal and Bo Diddley to name just a few.
Sweet Daddy's smoking lead vocals, full-bodied harmonica, and soulful saxophone along with long time partner Mark Easton and burning guitar player, add up to an unprecedented high energy Blues show that few bands can match. It's only a matter of time until people in cities and towns across America repeat the words spoken by the eighty-year-old trucker whose phrase gave rise to the bands name: "Lawd have mercy, Sweet Daddy Cool Breeze is in town!"
