All musical ways of the USA are leading down south. Rock, Soul,
Blues, Gospel, Rock ’n’ Roll, Jazz and Country - they all have their
roots down here.
In
Louisiana nations and cultures are mixed in a unique way. Beginning
in New Orleans, Zydeco originated out of the afro-caribian lifestyle
of all the cultures also the french-speaking Akadians, after they
were displaced from Canada.
The
Zydeco- & Cajun Music is a musical mirror where you find the variety
of culturell influences who came to the New World. French
accordionsounds, celtic music, the blues of the slaves on the farms
and creole rhythms from the caribic. These mixture is the musical
cocktail of ZYDECO ANNIE & SWAMP CATS.
In
New Orleans, the „Big Easy“, till this day the motto is „Laissez le
bon temps rouler“ – „Let the good times roll“. And that's
preassigned with this Music!
