Zydeco in California is a one-hour, character-driven radio documentary on the zydeco community of northern California. The project explores issues surrounding the assertion and maintenance of ethnic identity through the re-creation of the musical culture of one’s original home. Zydeco artists such as Queen Ida, Ray Stevens and André Thierry will be interviewed.

 

Coming Soon!  Check back with Creative PR for updates.
