Louis Michot + Marcella Simien

Join us for a one-of-a-kind night celebrating the rich musical traditions of Louisiana and the South, featuring two-time GRAMMY®-winning fiddler and singer Louis Michot and swamp-soul powerhouse Marcella Simien.

Best known as the fiddle player and lead singer of the Grammy Award-winning Lost Bayou Ramblers, Louis Michot brings Louisiana French music into the present with a sound rooted in Cajun tradition, folklore, and the culture of the Gulf Coast. His solo work pushes those traditions in unexpected directions while honoring the people and places that inspire them.

Marcella Simien draws on her own deep Creole roots, blending Memphis soul, New Orleans funk, and Louisiana zydeco. The daughter of two-time GRAMMY®-winning artist Terrance Simien, Marcella grew up immersed in music and has emerged as a powerful artist in her own right, bringing soulful vocals, Creole accordion, and a modern sensibility to a rich musical legacy.

Together, Michot and Simien create a dynamic double bill that connects Cajun, Creole, swamp soul, and Southern roots music—a celebration of heritage, place, and the artists carrying these traditions forward.
