Man I am a cajun stuck in Los Angeles. This really brings me home. It's like you guys make me feel the spirit of my people in my bones. Never appreciate your roots until you are gone. Thank you for reminding me of our uniqueness. Thank you for keeping the language alive!
Yep, not until your gone. I like when you said "feel the spirit of my people"....I felt that. Lost Cajun out here in Denver now. I was raised about 6 miles west of that hwy 31 & 355 intersection in A town....Arnaudville. Thank you fellas for making this video, touches the soul. bon temps rouler
Make ya way way back home enfants perdus des Acadiens:)
I have roots in New Orleans and Hawai'i. And yes, I appreciate them more now that I'm living on the East Coast.
I'm in Georgia. I know what you mean: the durned video is partly filmed at the studio I could walk to from my Mamma's house. And Wa Wees is not far from my parents either. You have to drive past it every time you go to Lafayette the "back way."
scarlett singing in french is my new obsession bye
I am a cajun who grew up in the Louisiana bayou culture, and except for the old cajun and zydeco heroes of mine, these guys are the best. Man, they had Scar Jo, Dr. John (look him up...he's a legend), and Gordon Gano, lead of the Violent Femmes (whom I love). They are incredible. I have listened to them for a while. If you like this, check out their cover of "My Generation" (for any millennials, put down your selfie stick and actually look it up...I have millennials, so I can say that). :P Any haters, give me your reasons, and if you have a good enough reason, I will concede it is not for you. For all of you with an open mind who didn't hear this growing up or during once a year Mari Gras or New Orleans Jazz Fest, witness the revival of this bit of history. Also, they have been in movies....check IMDB. They are bringing to the forefront music most people don't know about. I (obviously) can't say enough. Any other Cajuns or Creoles like this? Reply if you like. Kinda hard to catch it having to live in Texas most of the year. My husband and I miss home, obviously, from my running on and on. ;)
I saw them do "My Generation" at Jazzfest the first time I saw them, and they blew me awayl I've been a regular fan ever since and my ONLY regret is I wished they covered "My Generation" the same year that the Who closed Jazzfest. Even though the Fai-Do-Do stage is a ways away from the Acura stage, it would have been a wonderful statement\challenge to the Who to top this awesome Cajun Band from Carencro.
Their music is some of the most creative and innovative being written in America today and I heartily endorse everyone to give them a listen. I've marvelled how their music has evolved over the last 10 years. Catch them if you can!!!
It’s a video journey which, no matter how many viewers/listeners it will ever have, will never have enough.
It is French... with a little bit of twist but it's all in Louisiana French like Prairie Femme said. It's amazing that, after so many generations (after 1755, Le Grand Dérangement), people do speak French in Louisiana... The Michot family is a great example.
C'est de la bonne musique LBR, continuez de chanter en français!
The Michot's had stopped speaking french until a generation ago. Tommy is a throwback!
Quelles belles chansons! What wonderful songs!
I remember when my grandparents use to bring us to eat Hamburgers at Waa wee's on the River in the 70's Lol!
Louie makes love to his fiddle! So special to see hollywood stars love LBR also!
Un bonjour de France, je suis fan de se que vous faites continuez......
Tres bien, monsieur. Merci beaucoup pour l'amour.
home sweet home.
The outside shots seem right out of True Detective. - very bayou atmospheric. Feel like I'm back on the Creole Nature Trail.
Andre.. this is a terrific video.. Im so embarrassed not to have ever heard of your band now. I met you and your wife while walking this morning in Broussard. I look forward to seeing you guys in person now. :)
Laissez le bon temps rouler
Can't believe I missed you guys here in Mobile @ Callaghans. We never get good Cajun music here and I let this one slip under my nose!! Hope you guys make it back and I find out about it
❤❤❤
Steve Spradling "sexy mofos" my god this music is divinity
God I love your music.
The melody for this kinda sounds like "Horseshoe" by North Mississippi Allstars. Love it.
God i gotta head down the Mississippi...
❤️
Waaaaayyyyyyyyy. bien joue.
oui, c'est du français louisianais. Ça se comprend.
You guys make me want to smoke the herb, and drink, hardcore.
you guys rock
Oh Yeah! That's what I'm talking about!
soundstyle like cajun, from the southstates, i think so. i love it.
It's difficult but I can understand about 60% of what they say.
I'm French.
Here's a scenario: Let's say you're a kingdom that starts a colony in Canada in the 1600's. You then sign away the colony and it colonists' lives to your enemies in 1715 and their new masters forcefully scatter them to the winds, some ending up in the swamps of Louisiana. This land you will later sell to the US, which will eventually ban the teaching their language in the early 20th century. In the meantime, in 1789, you had a revolution that, among other things, fundamentally changed the way your language is expected to be pronounced and replaced much of its vocabulary. How reasonable would it be, in 2013, to expect the descendants of those people who left over 400 years ago, to speak like you?
@@marcgauthier6894 Great points, also the localization of the language - how they pronounce things unique to Canada and Louisiana affected them.
But it still is a wonderful, musical language and I hope the world can enjoy it.
people do understand and speak Louisiana French. yes.
Nous francophone on comprend... au travers de milton, sur le pont vermillon... :)
Can anyone explain the hand gesture with thumb and forefinger that both scarlet and louie make? I'd really like to knw the meaning!
I'm from about six miles west of that hwy 31 sign. when me and my boys did that gesture it meant I'm out, see you later, I'm out of here, catch you later etc. I strongly believe that's what it meant....could be wrong though.
It refers to the words of the song. "Plus Haut" means further up. "Monte plus haut de le couteau" means climb further up the ridge.
It's exactly French with a Southern Accent. Donc, oui, ce n'est pas difficile à comprendre.
would love to know the story behind how scarlett johansson got involved with this. very out of left field!
I recall that I once read that they met at the studio when Mammoth Waltz was recorded.
smashing p
Featuring Scarlett Johansson and there is just over 2000 views WTF
Where can I find this version? It's not the same version on the album...
it doesn't sound like french...can french people understand this? and Scarlet looks very casually nice 2:37
Yes, Louisiane still french!
I am french and I understood 10 %
What is the name of the song, please?
It’s Coteau Guidry if you’re still wondering
Continuez longtemps , bonne musique , mais trop d'Anglais , faite un effort ///////////
Français, lâche pas la patate ...
Cute nose that fiddler has.
OUAIS!!! LBR C'mon!
Lue M rocks it again

hahaha I'll blame you mofo's for my relating alcohol and marijuana, to Cajun music. I'm kidding. But you mofo's have become the sound I've been looking for, since I was 21. I'm now 35. Any purists, whom talk shit about what you're doing, can kiss my ass.
