From Michael Doucet, to Fred's in Mamou, to D.L. Menard, to Boozoo and the iconic Sunday trail ride, this video is packed with incredible Acadiana nostalgia.
Acadiana, indeed the world, has lost a cultural treasure. I awoke shortly after 4 am Saturday to see the announcement on Facebook that Stanley "Buckwheat" Dural Jr. had passed away from lung cancer about 3 hours earlier...
Our local talent, crazy man Travis Matte, has a new song called 'Bye Felicia'. The man who gave us 'Vibrator', heard at every club and wedding reception in Acadiana, gives us another song that may end up being just as popular.
Last night Acadiana was treated to a Fourth Of July performance by The Acadiana Symphony and Grammy winning Chubby Carrier & The Bayou Swamp Band. Chubby will be the last winner of the Grammy for Best Zydeco/ Cajun recording.
