Our Mission

Zydeco Joseph is supported by the “The H-Town Players” with Louisiana roots. Drawing from our Creole heritage and my passion for entertaining and delivering authentic “Old School” Zydeco, with an emphasis on foot-stomping rhythms and crowd pleasing lyrics. We will take you on a journey back to the bayou where you will hear our unique Creole flavor with a touch of R&B. Taking cues from some of the Zydeco Masters, I'm a self taught Accordion player who brings my own style and originality to each and every song. I have been pleasing crowds with my flavor of Zydeco for years. The hottest band in the land, “The H-Town Players”, supports me. 

Each band member has deep professional musical background, which they gain from other local bands over the years. They brought their talents and their experience to the band, and it shows in the music we play. We all have a passion for Zydeco and we try to bring you the best, never forgetting our Louisiana roots and heritage. Watch out for us, “here we come”.

Zydeco (French: "les haricots", English: "snap beans") is a form of American roots or folk music, that evolved from the jure during the late 1800s call and response vocal music of the black and multiracial French speaking Creoles of south and southwest Louisiana.

During the early 20th century this soulful, heavily syncopated, indigenous roots music was discovered by ethnomusicologists and record labels alike. Usually fast-tempo, and dominated by the button or piano accordion and a form of a washboard known as a rub-board or frottoir, zydeco music was originally created at house dances where the blacks and free people of color of south Louisiana would gather for socializing.
