Our friend Greg Vandy over at KEXP's The Roadhouse, requested a blog about Valcour Records killer album, Allons Boire un Coup: Cajun/Creole Drinking Songs, and we were more than happy to help. The blog talks about how a new generation of Cajun/Creole musicians have taken their culture back from the crass commercialization that's diluted its original power. Read the blog and you can listen to an audio track as well.
