Growing up in Richmond, Virginia, Ann Savoy was surrounded by music and poetry at home, even before she was gifted a plastic ukulele when she was 10. Savoy is grounded in the land from which she came: the mysteries and beauty of the Piedmont and Tidewater regions of Virginia, and the “gothic depths” of Richmond.
Now, as an adult and celebrated practitioner of Cajun music, she boasts a discography that spans albums, books, music videos, liner notes, television and film, and a musical journey that has taken her around the world and into collaborations with many artists – most notably her decades with the Savoy-Doucet Cajun Band but also the Magnolia Sisters and Linda Ronstadt, with whom she recorded the Grammy-nominated Adieu False Heart (2006). As a torchbearer of the Louisiana-based Cajun musical tradition, Savoy is a storyteller above all else, creating a legacy as a historian just as much as a musician.
