About Me

ZYDECANE is the brainchild of TIMMY DUGAS....He got together with Abe Manuel Jr (merle haggards fiddle player)(Swire From Grand Chenier) & a few of his other favorite musicians and formed ZYDECANE. This band is pure zydeco energy! Playing variety & as well as zydeco but theres a taste of Louisiana in everything they do. From 2 step to jitterbug, you will dance all nite as Zydecane does their mojo! Myspace Layouts
