CD Review -

** "Trahan's newest CD is called Keep Walking. Released in October, it is a slamming collection of songs, pumping with roots rock, fevered zydeco, prairieland Cajun, country R&B and even hip-hop, as evidenced on the ultra catchy "HDTV." With no lame tracks on the entire disc, it's an infectiously hooky batch of tunes that explores the core of values of our modern Acadian culture while lovingly pushing Cajun, zydeco and all music into the future. The tunes on the disc traipse, saunter and naturally charge into unknown territory where previous incarnations of Cajun and zydeco were afraid to go. The disc trumpets fresh melodies, contemporary French and English lyrics, and a rocking band unconcerned with puritanical attitudes about genre — all of it without losing an ounce of the soul of what it is to be Cajun in the modern world. This is the CD to buy this year." — Dege Legg
