The Cajun Strangers play the dance music of the French speaking culture of southwest Louisiana. The button accordion and the fiddle are the main melody instruments in Cajun music with the guitar, bass, drums and Cajun triangle (T-Fer) providing the driving dance rythmn. Most vocals are sung in Cajun French, and dances include the traditional two-steps and waltzes. We also add a mix of Cajun Blues, Zydeco, and Swamp Pop with some of these songs sung in English. We teach the traditional Cajun dancing styles but most types of ballroom and swing dancing can be done to our music. In addition to playing dances, the band plays in concert settings, clubs, and for parties and festivals of all kinds. Our second CD titled "Valse a Deux Temps" was released in the fall of 2006 on Swallow Records.
