A blog about world and global music from a guy who co-hosts the KUNM Global Music Show, 89.9 FM Albuquerque/Santa Fe, http://www.kunm.org. I post one song a day, with reflections on the music, life, and whatever else comes into my mind.

A Song of Mardi Gras: Jambalaya Cajun Band and "Le Chanson de Mardi Gras"
Today's tune is by the Jambalaya Cajun Band, and is called Le Chanson de Mardi Gras. A band that has been around since 1977, the Jambalaya Cajun Band specializes in Cajun music and is made up of people who have roots in Louisiana music and who are also advocates for the preservation of Cajun French language and culture. You can find Le Chanson de Mardi Gras on their 1992 album Instrumental Collection, as well as the 1992 various artists compilation Cajun and Zydeco Mardi Gras.
Listen to songs like this and more on the KUNM Global Music Show every Monday night from 10 pm - 1 am Mountain Standard Time. Live streaming, program information and the two-week digital archive can be found at http://www.kunm.org.
