If you've seen a Buckwheat show, you know what to expect: rocking, stomping, good time Creole party music. If you haven't seen Buckwheat Zydeco live, you're missing one of the music world's most exciting and fun performers. This road warrior is constantly touring all over the country and the world.  Buckwheat plays his music to make people happy.  Bring your own lawn chairs, a fireworks display will be following the Gala.

 

 

Jackpot! combines soulful original tunes, inspired playing and singing, and the trademark exuberance that’s made Buck the world’s best-loved zydeco artist, and has earned Buckwheat Zydeco the sobriquet “the world’s greatest party band.” There’s plenty of Buckwheat’s signature accordion, and for the first time ever Buck specifically features his soulful mastery of the horizontal keyboard on a fantastic three-song Hammond B3 “Encore featuring Organic Buckwheat.” Features 55 minutes of great new music.

"Buck and the band spit out the kind of crackling music that's been missing since the heyday of Stax Records...On stage the attack is relentless...Stanley Dural has hit his stride."


Wall Street Journal
 

"In front of a sellout crowd desperately searching for a little dancing room Buckwheat Zydeco delivered on their promise to play till closing time. And then some...Dynamic live performances."
 

Washington Post
 

"Buckwheat Zydeco is spearheading the hybrid Creole dance music's move into rock venues. Mr. Dural's playing was expressive, soulful, dynamically varied and rhythmically incisive."
 

New York Times
