Welcome
to the Official LeeRon Zydeco MySpace page. My name is Ron Davis aka LeeRon
Zydeco, and I am a professional keyboardist,
accordionist, vocalist, composer and music educator. I lead
a popular Zydeco-Cajun roots band called LeeRon Zydeco & the
Hot Tamales, in which I play accordion and sing, accompanied by some
of the best
musicians in the Western New York State area. We play a spicy, upbeat
mix of Zydeco, Cajun, Caribbean, Blues, Tex-Mex and New Orleans party funk
for
casual
and elegant events of every kind.
I also lead a group called The
Ronnie Davis Combo that plays funky organ soul-jazz-and
blues from classic Jimmy Smith-Groove Holmes-Ray Charles to contemporary groove
originals.
In
addition, I do a solo boogie piano act playing barrelhouse honky tonk
and New Orleans blues ala Professor Longhair and Doctor John, along with
funked-up
Beatles and Stones, American standards, and swing jazz including Duke Ellington
classics
I
also offer an edu-tainment program
called BorderBeat that
traces the origins of American roots music and cross-culturalization. This
I present in schools, colleges and cultural centers. I also use roots music
and rhythm as a therapeutic tool in programs for disabled and autistic
kids and adults. I am currently writing a book called Groove Gumbo:
The Spice and Soul Side of American Music (and food) which will
be available soon...
