Dr. Buzzard’s Original Savannah Band emerged in the mid-1970s as a bold fusion of big band elegance and disco-era rhythm. Formed by brothers Stony Browder Jr. and August Darnell, the New York-based group brought swing, jazz, and Latin influences to the dance floor with lush arrangements and cinematic flair. Their self-titled debut album, featuring the hit “Cherchez La Femme,” earned critical acclaim and Grammy recognition, cementing their reputation as innovators who bridged vintage sophistication with modern groove.
