Cajun Country

by Craig Duncan

Overview

Renowned Nashville fiddler Craig Duncan turns in a lively set of Cajun dance tunes on his 2015 release Cajun Country. The veteran player, producer, performer, and teacher has performed on over 90 recordings and can shift effortlessly between styles whether it be bluegrass, Celtic, polka, swing, or in this case, Cajun. Over the course of 14 tracks, Duncan and a crack band that features accordion, lead guitar, and a tight rhythm section work their way through a playlist of bayou favorites and obscurities with professional ease and good-time zeal. ~ Timothy Monger
