Bayou Rhythms: Happy, Relaxing Cajun Music

Жыл бұрын

Cajun music (French: Musique cadienne), is an emblematic music of Louisiana played by the Cajuns, and is rooted in the ballads of the French-speaking Acadians of Canada. Cajun music is often mentioned in tandem with the Creole-based zydeco music. Both are from southwest Louisiana and share French and African origins.

I just learned about this style of music today in 2024 …. I have no attachment to it , but reading the comments , it’s so nice to see this was a part of people’s lives . This to me sounds like something from TV…. I love Louisiana Culture

I lived in Lousiana for five years and lived in NOLA and spend some good time in Houma. The Cajun people are wonderful, kind hearted and authentic souls. And the food and music are amazing.

Isnt it fun to just discover a whole new genre of music? And to think its 100% American and 100% Louisiana. I havent had a big musical awakening in awhile. I need to keep my ears open because im ready for something new :)

You need to plan a trip to Cajun country... I suggest you start with Lafayette, Louisiana. Plenty of good food and good music - you can't possibly go wrong.

Still tugs at my heart five years after leaving even though I’m now in NYC which has the same effect. It’s like being in love with two women at once equally

So joyous and celebratory. Happy and uplifting tunes. Accordion, fiddle, banjo, guitar, upright bass, trombone, harmonica, snare drum, tuba... happy, happy, happy. I'm here listening to Conan O'brien's podcast saying he got his band for the show based on them playing a Cajun style tune. It fits his playful personality. I didn't know what Cajun was and typed it into youtube and this came up. Awesome! It's like a celebration of the simple pleasures in life but in a positive way. Food, drink, dance, song, friendship, musical joy. There's not a hint of angst or darkness in it at all. Great for the soul.

I was fortunate to have her write all of her recipes down for me while she still could. I've managed to perfect the red beans and rice, so far...
