Artist description
Les Femmes d'Enfer is a six woman all-acoustic Cajun band from the Seattle area. They play blistering two-steps, rockin’ Zydeco numbers, and sweet waltzes. Although they concentrate on preserving the traditional music of Southern Louisiana with two fiddles, an accordion, guitar, bass, triangle and rub board, they do not hesitate to toss in one of their original Zydeco tunes or waltzes |
