Nuit de La Musique at the Cabildo

Music by Louis Michot

Grammy Award winning Louis Michot is best known as the fiddle player and lead singer for the Lost Bayou Ramblers, but his passion for Louisiana French and local folklore, and sustainability in the fastest disappearing landmass in the world are what fuels his career as a musician. The Ramblers had their first international performance in Lyon, France in November 2004, and have since toured through France, Belgium, Holland, Germany, and Sweden. Their debut release, Pilette Breakdown received critical acclaim across North America and Europe. Their evolution as a perversely progressive band rooted in Cajun traditions continues to excite, challenge, and redefine both genre expectations as well as cultural preconceptions. Mr. Michot is a featured artist at the 2023 New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival.
