Event information

A fiddle led band playing fun Cajun dance music with a touch of western swing, including some of their own compositions (~8.40-10.50pm)
Beginners' Cajun dance class (8.00-8.40pm)- it's easy and fun.

Acadian Strings are a four piece band featuring twin fiddles, guitar, and bass / ‘tit fer / rub board, with harmony vocals. The band members are Charlie Skelton on fiddle and vocals, Carol Wilson on double bass, vocals and ‘tit fer / rub board, Peter Dunhill on guitar and vocals, and Paris based fiddle player Naïk Peudon on fiddle, alto, and ‘tit fer.

The band plays traditional Cajun and Creole music laced with a smattering of new compositions in the style. The music features driving creole blues, twin fiddle led swing, and traditional two steps; interspersed with some of the loveliest and saddest waltzes on the scene.
