   About Sarah Savoy & the Francadians
Two full-length albums available now!

Photobucket

Recorded in France in 2008, "Off to the Honky Tonk" received "Bravos" from TRAD Magazine, 4/4 stars from Soulbag Magazine, and 3/4 stars from Maverick Magazine. The album features many original songs co-written by Sarah Savoy and Gerard Dole, as well as the group's first hit, "Hello, Baby!"



Photobucket

Recorded in Louisiana at Joel Savoy's Savoy-Faire Studios in December, 2009, the songs on "C'ez Savoy" are more traditionally Cajun than those of the first album, and include "Lapin dans son nique" by Ann Savoy, Sarah Savoy's "'Tit monde, 'tit monde" response to Wilson Savoy's "Catin, catin," Vincent Blin's "A la maison two-step," Sarah Savoy's first original, "Dis-moi que tu m'aime pas," and the band's most requested waltz, "Marie mouri," the duet featuring Sarah Savoy and Manolo Gonzales. Joel Savoy plays guitar on "Marie mouri" and Baton Rouge drummer friend Glenn Fields (Red Stick Ramblers, Ann Savoy & Her Sleepless Knights) joins the group for three songs.
