On October 14, 2008, Blue Moon Presents released their first CD, Best of the Bayou, a live recording of Jeffery Broussard & the Creole Cowboys, Lost Bayou Ramblers, and The Bluerunners. Recorded at The Blue Moon Presents’ March 2008 South By Southwest showcase at Roadhouse Rags in Austin, TX, the album captures the raw, live performances of three of the Lafayette venue’s favorite bands.
Jeffery Broussard & The Creole Cowboys is one of the few traditional Zydeco bands playing today. The band features Jeffery Broussard, one of the most influential accordionists and vocalists in modern Zydeco, and D’Jalma Garnier III, a fiddle and guitar player and long-time contributor to Cajun and Creole music. The band delivers great, pack-the-floor renditions of Creole classics as well as their own brand of contemporary Zydeco.
Grammy nominated Lost Bayou Ramblers join this album with their energizing, off-the-cuff live performances. Since starting out in 1999 they have added dozens of original songs to compliment their vast Cajun repertoire of hundreds of early accordion dancehall tunes, pre-century fiddle tunes, and Cajun swing. It all mixes together to form a definitive sound, capturing the "roots" spirit of their culture''s unique music while initiating a renewed cultural identity and pride among their generation.
Formed twenty years ago, The Bluerunners pushed boundaries by blending Cajun roots with punk rock. Since then, The Bluerunners have had many acclaimed reviews, establishing themselves in both rock circles and the music of South Louisiana. Rooted in the Cajun and Zydeco music of their home turf, The Bluerunners still fuse their music with the gutbucket blues and country that form the musical language of the South.
The Blue Moon Saloon opened in April of 2002 on the back porch of the Blue Moon Guesthouse and has since established itself as one of America’s premier venues for roots music from around the globe, and the best place to hear Cajun and Zydeco music in Lafayette. This world famous honky tonk works hard to keep the local culture alive and well, and is proud to bring live shows such as Best of the Bayou to Lafayette’s daily life.
