Thanks so much for your friend request! I was so glad you found me! Your music is amazing -- I loved it! I'm honored to be in your circle and very happy to have you in mine!
I wish I was in the audience for ultra-hip Bayou Road! Awesome zydeco groove and I dug the bass foundation and rhythm guitar in the intro! It was an exciting transition when the accordian came in, and the little guitar breakdown was a nice touch! This was my favorite track for showcasing your superb vocals!
Great funky groove and bass line in "I don't know"! I wanted to get out of my seat and dance!
"Rock me baby" smoked with a fabulous bluesy vocal and hot accordian!
Your lively shuffle "Tule Ton Son Ton" was great! Nice French vocals!
