 | | Zydeco is a form of folk music, originated in the beginning of the 20th century among the Creole peoples of south-west Louisiana and influenced by the music of the French-speaking Cajun s. | | | The music arose as a synthesis of traditional Cajun music with African-American traditions that also underpinned R&B and blues. | | | It is dominated by the accordeon and rub-board washboard; sometimes including drums; guitar; horns and bass guitar. |

| | Zydeco is a popular accordion-based musical genre hailing from the prairies of south-central and southwest Louisiana. | | | Contrary to popular belief, it is not Cajun in origin; rather, zydeco is the music of south Louisiana’s Creoles of Color, who borrowed many of zydeco’s defining elements from Cajun music. | | | Zydeco frequently appears in movies, TV programs, and commercials — even more so than Cajun music, which, unlike zydeco, has retained much of its traditional flavor. |
