I’m talking about the fast, bouncy singing that the main vocalist does underneath all the electronic stuff.
I’m fairly certain I’ve heard it in other jazz or swing songs before, but there’s gotta be a more specific search term I can use, cause those are some pretty broad genres.
I did mean the older style they’re emulating, yeah. Maybe I wasn’t looking for old enough music, or looking too hard toward jazz. I’ll check those out, see if I can figure out what I heard before that sounded like this.
For the very specific vocal styling you’re talking about, there was a bit of a revival in the 90’s by a legit band called Squirrel Nut Zippers. Vocalist Katharine Whalen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BrgJmyPh2UI
