Louisiana-based Zydeco master Corey Ledet’s newest album Live in Alaska is everything a live album should be--it makes you wish you were there. Ledet joins For Songs to talk about the album, how it all came together, his amazing band, and how he started down the Zydeco road. We also chat about Ledet’s efforts to preserve the Louisiana Creole language in song. So sit back—or better yet get ready to jump up and down—as Corey Ledet joins the show.
