Description
The joyful music of Terrance Simien & the Zydeco Experience celebrates the Creole culture of south Louisiana in a fusion of New Orleans funk-reggae-world-blues-roots music with influences of African, French, Spanish and Native American musical styles. Grammy Award-winning Terrance Simien and his band have performed thousands of concerts, touring millions of miles in over 45 countries throughout their eventful career spanning over three decades. A particular highlight was Terrance’s participation in the Disney film The Princess and the Frog as a featured guest artist on the zydeco-style song “Gonna Take You There.” Your whole family will love the jubilant music that is zydeco!
