My First Trip to Acadiana
I figured I'd start by going to where the music comes from!

Cedric Watson is an amazing musician who plays Cajun/Creole music... there were a lot of other tunes that were more romantic and waltzy. He's at www.cedricwatson.com.
KOCZ is the low-power station in Opelousas, LA, about 20 miles north of Layfette - a center for zydeco music. Built by Prometheus Radio Project, it is run by the Southern Development Foundation and is a part of the local Mardi Gras celebration in the Lafayette area.
You can listen to it here.
