Down Home Cajun Music- Doc GuidryOn this episode of the podcast, we focus on the recordings of Oran "Doc Guidry". Born in Lafayette, he started his career with Happy Fats. In 1939 he formed the Sons of Acadians and recorded for Decca. But Doc recorded with everybody, it would impossible to provide all the records he played on.He recorded with Happy again in 1948, had a off session with Jimmie Davis's band in 1953 for Decca again. In 1961 he recorded again with Happy on La Louisianne. In 1966 he had a solo album on La Louisianne with a all-star band backing him, called "King of the Cajun Fiddlers"; titled rightly so. Long live the music and legacy of Doc Guidry.Aux Balle Chez Te Maurice- with Sons of Acadians (1939)Rosetta - with Sons of Acadians (1939)En Jour A Venir- with Sons of Acadians (1939)Allons Dance Colinda -with Happy Fats (1948)Crowley Two Step -with Happy Fats (1949)Fais Do Do Breakdown -with Happy Fats (1949)Chere Cherie (1953)The Little Fat Man (1953)Allons A Lafayette -with Happy Fat and Alex Broussard (1961)Tee Maurice (1966)Tee Kaplan (1966)Te Petite Te Meon (1966)*Interview section by Ann Savoy from Arhoolie Collection*All seltions from the original records

In Acadiana, business is a tradition and tradition is a business – often the family business. There's a long heritage of musical families around here, dynasties of fiddlers and accordion players handing down the tools and tricks of the family trade to generation after generation. Here our Acadiana musical families are household names, every bit as famous and respected for their talent as dynasties in other states maybe be revered for wealth and power. In Acadiana, music is one of our greatest exports. Lafayette practically pumps out ranks of acclaimed Zydeco and Cajun musicians and most of them are carrying on something they learned from their parents and their parents' parents. Throw a rock in any direction. You'll probably hit a Grammy nominee. Throw another, you'll hit her momma. Christiaan's guests on this edition of Out to Lunch Acadiana are both internationally celebrated musicians from famous Cajun families. Virginia-born Ann Savoy married into the Savoy family of Eunice and has toured internationally with her band the Magnolia Sisters which explores the feminine side of the Cajun tradition — they're not actually her sisters. Ann is a writer and will soon publish the second volume of her archival work Cajun Music: A Reflection of a People. Louis Michot grew up in a big, sprawling Cajun music family. Since 1999, he's toured internationally with Lost Bayou Ramblers, a band he started with his brother Andre 20 years ago. Lost Bayou won a Grammy for their 2017 record Kalenda. Recently, Louis launched Nouveau Electric Records, a label that puts out experimental artists rooted in Louisiana French musical traditions. Out to Lunch is recorded over lunch at The French Press in downtown Lafayette. You can photos from this show at our website, Photos by Lucius Fontenot. Hear more tales about Acadiana music over lunch with Wilson Savoy, Joel Savoy, and Andre Michot. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Remember back in the BC (Before Covid) days when we had a music business? In this edition of Out to Lunch we look back on this conversation originally recorded in 2018. In Acadiana there are a lot of things that differentiate us from the rest of the country. The biggest of all of them is music. You can live in Kansas and learn to make a gumbo. You can live in California and row a pirogue. But there's no way in the wide world that you can convincingly play Jolie Blond on the accordion or Bosco Stomp on the fiddle, unless you're born and raised here. Typically, in a Western capitalist economy, a rare resource is worth a lot of money. However, when it comes to our treasured musicians, we tend to under value them. Most Cajun and Zydeco musicians are working a second job to subsidize their music career. Wilson Savoy plays in the Grammy Award winning band Courtbouillon, and crowd favorite Pineleaf Boys. He's also a carpenter, building and renovating homes. Danny Devillier is a musician. And he's come up with a new angle on a traditional way musicians often subsidize their careers: giving music lessons. Danny is a drummer. He plays in the Grammy nominated band Bonsoir Catin, and he's played with everybody who's anybody in Cajun and Zydeco from Michael Doucet to Roddie Romero. But Danny doesn't just give drum lessons. He teaches people to play all kinds of instruments, including guitar and fiddle, at his music school, The Music Room, in Lafayette. Photos over lunch at Cafe Vermilionville by Lucius A Fontenot are at our website. Hear Wilson's mom, Ann Savoy on Out to Lunch, and brother Joel too.

Ann Savoy's landmark book of 1984, “Cajun Music: A Reflection of a People,” gave a voice to Cajun, Creole and zydeco pioneers, many of whom had never been interviewed. Savoy also told their stories through photos, sheet music and English translations of classic French lyrics. More than 35 years after its release, Savoy's milestone will soon have a second volume. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/nicholas-poulos/message
Ann Savoy and Jane Vidrine earned Grammy nominations as founding members of the all-female Cajun band, the Magnolia Sisters. Along the way, these mothers and wives raised children who are Grammy-nominated musicians, artists, cooks and more. Some of the same songs that rocked their children to sleep are in their latest CD and booklet, “Fais Do Do: Louisiana Lullabies.” --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/nicholas-poulos/message

Témoin de la culture francophone des Etats-Unis, la musique cajun est une promesse de swing et de bonne humeur ! Surtout lorsque son histoire nous est contée par la pétillante Sarah Savoy, Chanteuse-accordéoniste de talent, fille de Marc et Ann Savoy, ambassadeurs incontestés de la musique louisianaise. Depuis les vieux "jurés" créoles jusqu'aux styles les plus populaires aujourd'hui, Sarah aborde les contredanses et mazurkas acadiennes, le cajun swing et le swamp blues, le zydéco.
Artist Feature is Savoy Doucet Cajun Band in honour of Marc and Ann Savoy who are bringing the Savoy Family Band to Vancouver next week.
Artist feature: Marc and Ann Savoy
"Black Coffee" is a tribute to the music pioneered in the 30s and 40s by The Hot Club of France, with spot on instrumental chops and even a sultry babe singing in French.
The Magnolia Sisters talk about their GRAMMY nomination and Ann Savoy talks about being nominated against her son Wilson Savoy of the Pine Leaf Boys while another son is nominated for producing Cedric Watson's album. Hear some great music from the Magnolia Sisters and the Pine Leaf Boys that got them nominated in the zydeco/cajun category.
Aly Bain and Phil Cunningham, who will embark on their 20th touring year together in 2007 are best summed up in the words of Mike Russell, who wrote in The Glasgow Herald "They are simply the best traditional musicians you are ever likely to hear" The Savoy Doucet Cajun Band Marc and Ann Savoy, along with Michael Doucet create and interpret authentic old-time Cajun music, from popular dancehall tunes to soulful ballads, drawing upon each member's rich historical connection to their native southern Louisiana. Catching this expert, unpretentious trio is about the closest most of us will ever get to hearing an authentic Cajun bash on a screened-in bayou porch. Bengan Janson & Bjorn Stabi Bjorn Stabi is without doubt a legend among folk music fiddlers in Sweden and was probably the first traditional Swedish fiddler to perform in the United States. Bengan Janson is one of Sweden's greatest virtuosi on the accordion. With his evident ability to to embrace all musical styles he has collaborated with Björn Ståbi over the last ten years together developing a genuine folk music style of their own.
