The Calacas Jazz Band of Mexico performs Everybody Loves My Baby in this music video style film from 2013.
Everybody Loves My Baby was written by Spencer Williams (1889-1969) and Jack Palmer (1899-1976) and published in 1924. The extended title is Everybody Loves My Baby (But My Baby Don't Love Nobody But Me). It became a hit after Aileen Stanley's recording was released on record on September 19th of that year.
Later in 1924, both the Clarence Williams and Fletcher Henderson bands recorded the tune.It is now consider a jazz standard.
The Calacas Jazz Band was founded in 2006 by four members while studying at a music school in Mexico City. They formed originally for a class project on Sweet Substitute by Jelly Roll Morton, and eventually continued playing together. The name of the band in the beginning was Calaveritas de Azúcar which eventually changed to their current one.
They first played on the streets but by 2010 they had recorded their first album featuring music of the 1920s and '30s.
At present the band consists of Christian Merino Terreros who plays guitar, banjo and ukulele; singer Maria Arellano; Jazmin Luna who plays saxophone; Alejandro Hernandez who plays the washboard and anything else he can get his hands on; and Alonso López on bass.
