A hot, new
band in Southwest Louisiana’s Zydeco scene,
Jeffery Broussard & The Creole
Cowboys
features the accordion mastery and soulful vocals of front man
Jeffery Broussard, from the legendary band, Zydeco Force, along with
long-time contributor to Cajun and Creole music, fiddle and guitar player,
D’Jalma Garnier III.
The band delivers great, pack-the-floor
renditions of Creole classics as well as their own brand of contemporary Zydeco.
Early
Creole music, as played by legends Canray Fontenot on fiddle and Jeffery’s father, accordion player Delton Broussard, is experiencing a well-deserved resurgence of interest in
Louisiana today.
Jeffery Broussard & The Creole Cowboys are taking the next
generation’s perspective of this music and presenting it with contemporary flair
and expertise.
With the creation of the band,
both D’Jalma and Jeffery see an opportunity to continue creating incredible
music and outstanding performances, cultivating and inspiring new generations of
Creole zydeco fans.
