Cultural Arts 

​Born in Lafayette, Louisiana, fiddle player and vocalist Marie-Isabelle is a second generation culture bearer. When an injury prevented her from dancing to the music she grew up with, Marie-Isabelle started performing on stage. She has performed fiddle and vocals with 'T Marie & Bayou JuJu, Yeux D’Soco, The Backporch Review, The Crescent City Gentleman, and the Swamp Blossoms. In addition to performing traditionals from South Louisiana, she also writes original songs and poetry in Louisiana French and English.  Marie-Isabelle hopes that everyone who hears her music is transported to the feel of a community dancing in step - with floorboards creaking under the feet of our ancestors, elders, and the next generation.
