Looking for the perfect gift after Black Friday and Cyber Monday? Consider giving the gift of Louisiana music. The Year of Louisiana Music is wrapping up, but the state’s musical legacy lives on with artists like Fats Domino, Louis Armstrong, Lil Wayne, and more. When you gift Louisiana music, you support local artists and put money in their pockets. Consider purchasing CDs or vinyl from stores like Lagniappe Records or Louisiana Music Factory, or attending live shows and supporting artists directly. A few zydeco and Cajun releases to consider include Rusty Metoyer’s “Comin’ in Hot, Live in Lake Charles,” 4Horses’ “Live at La Poussiere,” and Belton Richard’s “The Essential Collection.” These albums showcase the rich musical traditions of Louisiana. Make the holidays merrier with the gift of Louisiana music. Your support will help artists continue creating the soundtrack of our lives.
