Their music has been called Cajun, Acadian, Zydeco and French dance music. Whatever the label, Michael Doucet and BeauSoleil proved Thursday night that their 50 years of performing and recording lived up to advance praise.
He'd pepper me with this query during that early AM time when you are trying to get those little things done log onto your computer, check your e-mail before the first sip of caffeine has started to work its magic.
In essence, it was born out of the forced migration of French speaking settlers from Canadian regions in and around present day Nova Scotia to Southern Louisiana in the mid 18th century.
There are a lot of reasons for that, but probably chief among them is the fact that the staff of the venue respects the music and the artists who make it.
Their extraordinary musicianship combined with an ability to spice their traditional sound with other forms of music make for an innovative and rare combination.
