"Folks, here's the story about..."

Cab Calloway, his music and his musicians.

Since 2006, The Hi De Ho Blog has been dedicated to the King of Hi De Ho who entertained a whole era, between the roaring Twenties until his death in 1994.

Jean-François PITET, creator of this website, is also the coauthor of TV documentary "Cab Calloway: Sketches" and has written the script for the comic book "Cab Calloway" by Cabu.
