Chenier, Rosie Ledet, Chubby Carrier, Nathan Williams, Rockin’ Dopsie Jr., Major Handy, Vasti Jackson, Creole United, and more. - “A fascinating documentary that not only captures the spirit of zydeco music and its sub-genres, but connects them to blues in a way that proves they were born of the same magic.” - Coop Cooper, Clarksdale Press Register.
