Lafayette Weekly

A weekly curated playlist by local musician Philippe Billeaudeaux featuring music by Lafayette, LA musicians with a weekly rundown of live music happening in and around the area. Tune in each week here or follow us on Spotify for your weekly dose of the sounds of Lafayette.

The Daiquiri Queens will help everyone get into the holiday spirit with a Thanksgiving Eve party at the Hideaway on Lee. The traditional Cajun dance band will get the party started at 6:00 pm on Wednesday.

Local funk rockers, the Good Dudes, will play Rock'n'Bowl on Friday night, while Zydeco hitmaker Lil' Nate and his band will be at the Grouse Room. Cover band favorite the Chee Weez will keep the party going on Saturday at Rock'n'Bowl along with DJ Digital.

The weekend wraps up with some of the best in Cajun and Creole music. Blake Miller and the Old Fashioned Aces play the Vermilionville Bal de Dimanche from 1:00-4:00 pm. Geno Delafose takes the stage at Rock'n'Bowl at 5:00 pm.

The second annual Zeno Fest will also take place on Sunday. The all-star event will honor legendary local bassist Lee Allen Zeno while raising funds for musicians in our community who are in compromising situations.

In this Lafayette Weekly Playlist, you'll hear a mix of Cajun, Zydeco, swamp pop, and rock. "Moi pour toi" by the Daiquiri Queens, Marcia Ball's take on "Louisiana 1927," and "Blue Tarp Blues" by Sonny Landreth are in this week's mix. Creole two steps from Geno Delafose and Lil' Nathan are also included, and tracks by Roddie Romero, the Good Dudes, and Blake Miller.
