What They're Saying About Corey Ledet Zydeco
"This is a musician who has the potential to take Zydeco to levels not seen since the passing of The King of Zydeco, Clifton Chenier."
Bob Gottlieb
No Depression“Ledet keeps one foot in the tradition of Chenier and Stanley ʻBuckwheatʼ Dural, while still exploring new styles of Zydeco.”
Richard Ludmerer
Making A Scene“Corey Ledet merges pop, funk, R&B, gospel, reggae and zydeco for a sound that is totally today, aimed at a younger generation, upbeat, completely danceable and yet, somehow tied to his roots in such a way that the blues related aspects are not completely lost on the shuffle…His blending of musical styles feels like a natural progression… I hear talk about growing in the blues. This album has done a great service to the music…be it zydeco, blues, funk, R&B, gospel or pop. Finally, someone has figured it out. This is well worth a good listen.
Bill Wilson
Reflections in BlueFollowing the French Créole Noir musical legacy of Amédée Ardoin & Bud Ardoin, Clifton Chenier & CJ Chenier arises a new virtuoso piano accordion master, Mr. Corey Ledet. Corey has sought out his musical path from his own family lineage of the roots of Zarico and where it is going. Because of his amazing virtuosity and talent combined with humility and research, his future musical road has no boundaries. What he plays is the real deal!
