VOODOO MOUNTAIN ZYDECO puts a Northwest brand on Zydeco; pumping out groove-filled tunes featuring squeezebox (Melodian), saxophone and a ripping rub-board.

The infectious rhythms, down-home, Western-Louisiana grooves and fascinating instruments will capture mind, body and spirit. Family friendly and is as much fun to watch as it is to dance to the sweet sounds of Voodoo Mountain Zydeco are sure to set your night on fire.
