Cajun

Cajun music is a style of folk music that originated in the 18th century among the Acadian people of Louisiana. It is a blend of traditional French folk music and Caribbean, Spanish, and West African influences. It is typically characterized by an up-tempo sound, accordion and fiddle as the main instruments, and a call-and-response singing style. It is often seen as a symbol of cultural pride and has been used to celebrate cultural heritage events and festivals in Louisiana.
