It is not the Louisiana in everything. But it's close."~ David Fricke -Rolling Stone July 14th 2015Cajun MusicThe Founding Genre of Louisiana Music. Cajun and Creole music is responsible for the creation of Zydeco music. It is said that Cajun music owed a great deal of its style to Afro-Creole accordion and fiddle music.
