Where are you looking to hire a Zydeco Band?
Zydeco music developed in southwest Louisiana in the early 1600's. Zydeco is a lively mixture of cajun music, blues, R&B, Carribean music, and even a little jazz. Zydeco music has been steadily growing in popularity over the past fifteen years, as Louisiana's rich cultural heritage has become more widely known. Cajun cooking shows, New Orleans' Mardi Gras celebrations, and the interest of musicians such as Eric Clapton, Mary Chapin Carpenter, and Paul Simon have all contributed to this trend. A typical zydeco band (which can also include an accordian player and an electric violinist) performs with hypnotic rhythms, upbeat originality, and high energy! A zydeco band is fun to hear and even more fun to dance to! As dancers have started returning to couple's dance styles such as swing, ballroom, and the lindy hop, zydeco music has attracted a growing following. So spice up your next party and hire a zydeco band! |
