t marie and bayou juju


  • Bio:    T Marie and Bayou Juju play traditional and original Louisiana music. The band started through gatherings at fires, suppers, porches, and levees,  and you’ll feel this vibrant community of friendship echo through all of their music.  In addition to honoring traditional Cajun, Creole, Zydeco, Swamp Pop, Country, Blues, and New Orleans songs, the band also contributes to the next generation of South Louisiana sound with their own original tunes, performed in both Louisiana French and English. These days you can catch  them at dive bars, dancehalls, and festivals, sharing that same good juju and joy. Get on your dancing shoes and shrimp boots, and join in on .... Cajun below sea level!
