Nuvo Zydeco:
Zydeco is a high-energy, infectious music originating from Southwest Louisiana which combines elements of R&B, soul, blues and rock n’roll, featuring instruments native to that region. Nuvo Zydeco carries on this special tradition by creating an interactive, memorable and FUN experience for the audience. The excitement of seeing an aggressively played steel washboard along with the power of the accordion up front and center always brings the good times.
