We need to keep Zydeco Alive!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The personal and economic impact on zydeco music will be harsh. Zydeco is a small but oh so necessary cultural legacy. I hope all will join me in first getting help to our musicians and then finding places for them to play the music we all love and want to see continue to Make us dance!
These are temporary addresses only good for probably 2 months as they are displaced due to hurricane.
We are suggesting, money orders or Wal-Mart cards directly to the musicians as soon as possible. I will be adding to this list as I obtain safe addresses for the musicians to receive mail.
Thanks for your support
