The Zydeco Crawdaddys

Zydeco CrawdaddysAs St Louis's first original zydeco band, the Zydeco Crawdaddys will treat you to a wide variety of traditional as well as modern Zydeco music from the French Creole region of southern Louisiana. Founded by Paul (PJ) Jarvis in 1996, the Daddys take you back to the bayous of Lake Charles and Lafayette, where the infectious rhythms of traditional zydeco instruments will make all its listeners smile, no matter what age, race or gender. Audience participation with rub boards and shaker cans is always permitted, if not actively encouraged. Also during the show, the Daddys spice things up with their own renditions of traditional New Orleans style jazz numbers interspersed with many original compositions. Some of their more popular tunes like 'Boll Weevil' and 'Washboard Susie' are a sure bet to get the crowd rolling.

For more information, call Fred (314)968-8749 or Paul (618)667-6467. Also visit us online.

When you're in a pinch, throw the Crawdaddys a line!
