Louisiana Dance HallAmerican roots with a French Twist: Cajun, Creole, Zydeco & Swamp Pop

With a nod to Valentine's Day we get down to the business of the approach to Mardi Gras – whether you're in New Orleans or Basile music now is setting the stage. See John Wirt's excellent description in  http://theadvocate.com/entertainment1999284-31mardi-gras-music-makers.html#. Lagniappe: There'll be a cool benefit party on Fat Tuesday at Dogtown Dance Theatre. To see my track list click "read more". I'll read a little from Cajun Mardi Gras Masks by CArl Lindahl & Carolyn Ware. Info on nearby dances may be found at WhereWeGoToZydeco.com and DancingByTheBayou.com. Allons danser!
