Music as it should be

Music as it should be – LET’S HAVE SOME FUN!

Music as it should be.
 Welcome to the website of the musical project The Diddy Wah Daddies, consisting of Edley Jones and Barry Cockrell. Two years ago, we began this new collaboration that brings a rich and varied background of musical influences to create what we think is a fresh interpretation of the music you have come to enjoy.  

Think about it – there are 10,000 great songs written over the years. Our aim was to select what we considered to be among the best of them – whether Rock’n’Roll, Rhythm & Blues, Americana, Blues, Alternative or Country- our focus was on choosing good music. We play our selections from these great songs, a list that is always updated, and also songs from Edley’s original albums.  We offer our interpretation of songs that we think will make your party or event a special night. 

Music as it should be – LET’S HAVE SOME FUN!

Announcing the release of the second album of original songs composed and performed by EDLEY in his new album “A Good Guitar Will Do That”  Check it out on all major streaming services.
