Acadien Cajun Band, after eleven years and two highly praised albums, is back with their third release entitled Sounds Like Us. Emphasizing Cajun music with modern-sounding dance ability, the recording is a true ACB production. “We wanted this CD to reflect what we sound like when we play live,” says Ryan Simon, accordionist. “No fancy tricks, no added high-wire act. Just straight ACB.” This album is all that and more.
From the very beginning, the Acadien style is demonstrated with “1755,” a Dewey Balfa original. ACB puts its own spin on it with an original arrangement with Brandon Moreau’s four-part vocal ensemble. The band also puts out great dancehall numbers such as “Eunice Two-Step” and “Family Waltz,” stressing ACB’s commitment to invigoration and reliving the greatest Cajun music of all time. Joe Romero, Joe Vidrine, and Jay Miller round out the rhythm section of the band. “Good Cajun music doesn’t just happen. You have to make it happen.” says Joe. “You have to feel the music, the rhythm, and the groove.”
Along with songs of the past, are undoubtedly, songs of the future. Five songs have been added to the repertoire, all of which have the rich, deep roots of past Cajun music with the youthful exuberance of the future.
This album is the continuation of a great tradition of modern Cajun music: Acadien Cajun Band’s brand of traditional, yet contemporary Cajun music. The band has become well-seasoned and well-versed, and each of the musicians has grown individually and together. The album demonstrates the true Acadien sound, unquestionably the best yet.
