Mardi Gras 2006
Cajun Specials

CD Bayou Blues

One cold night in January 2006 a group of friends gathered around a kitchen table in a terraced house in Chorlton, Manchester, placed a microphone in the middle of the table and began to play and record some of their favourite Cajun tunes.

Their aims were to:

1.Have a good time – in the best Cajun traditions,

2.Produce a ‘limited edition’ recording to raise some cash in support of the New Orleans Musicians Hurricane Relief Fund.

Hurricane Katrina devastated New Orleans and silenced the musicians who made their living and supported their families by entertaining the residents and visitors to this wonderful City.

 

Thanks to:
