The Savoy Family Cajun Band Tour – UKby Rob Howard |
The Savoy Family Cajun Band, from Louisiana, USA, play Cajun music. Their leader Marc Savoy is one of the Cajun tradition’s best known accordionists, and also well known as an accordion manufacturer. Marc and Ann Savoy (fiddle) and their sons Joel (fiddle) and Wilson (accordion and piano) create a tight, intense sound. The repertoire is chosen carefully: popular dancehall tunes interspersed with soulful ballads, fiddle and vocal duets, and blues. The band brings the raw energy of the dancehalls of southwest Louisiana to the stage, peppered with humorous and informative anecdotes about life in the Cajun heartland.
