Woody Herman, nacido el 16 de mayo de 1913 en Milwaukee, Wisconsin, fue uno de los artistas más influyentes de la big band y la música swing. Nominado a numerosos premios Grammy -y ganador de tres- a lo largo de su carrera, Woody Herman dirigió su orquesta en muchas direcciones diferentes, creando música reconfortante a la vez que vanguardista. Como clarinetista, saxofonista, cantante y director de orquesta, saltó a la fama a finales de la década de 1930. Como intérprete infantil, empezó como bailarín de claqué y cantante en el vodevil antes de empezar a tocar el clarinete y el saxofón a los 12. Más tarde empezó a actuar con orquestas dirigidas por Harry Sosnick, Gus Arnheim e Isham Jones. Cuando Isham Jones, que era un compositor de éxito, decidió retirar su banda para poder disfrutar de los derechos de autor de sus canciones, Woody Herman intervino y, en 1936, nació Woody Herman and His Orchestra. El conjunto fue conocido con muchos nombres a lo largo de los años, entre ellos Band That Plays the Blues y variaciones del nombre Woody Herman and the Herd (es decir: Second Herd, Third Herd, Fourth Herd, etc.), the Young Thundering Herd, y otros. Woody Herman y su orquesta cosecharon numerosos éxitos, como "At the Woodchopper's Ball" (1939), "Blue Flame" (1941), "Blues in the Night", con la voz de Woody Herman (1942), "Caldonia" (1945) y " Sabre Dance" (1948). Como la mayoría de sus contemporáneos, los grupos de big band y swing que tan importantes habían sido unos años antes sufrieron un declive de popularidad tras el final de la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Sin embargo, Woody Herman mantuvo en activo diferentes variantes de la banda hasta su muerte, el 29 de octubre de 1987, a la edad de 74 años. A lo largo de su vida, Woody Herman and His Orchestra publicó cientos de grabaciones, entre sencillos, EP y álbumes. Tres de sus álbumes ganaron el premio Grammy a la Mejor Interpretación de Jazz - Grupo Grande (Instrumental): Encore: Woody Herman 1963, Giant Steps (1973) y Thundering Herd (1974). Desde su fallecimiento, se han publicado numerosas recopilaciones, entre ellas Blowin' Up a Storm: The Columbia Years 1945-47.
