Zachary Richard & Friends
|
 Cajun singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, activist
and our Season 10 program guide essayist Zachary Richard has covered quite a
bit of turf over the years. From country rock to atmospheric pop, his work as a
songwriter and musician has been marked by its personal and political passion,
and as much by its sense of exploration as its advocacy for cultural and
environmental preservation and perpetuation.
During a career marked by unparalleled popularity in Canada,
France, the U.S. and Louisiana, Richard has remained true to his roots, seeking
out new ways to make a better life from the things he has found, discovered and
invented.
Through his dedicated promotion of our native French
language and urgent environmental causes, he has continued to raise important
issues - and push for thoughtful solutions - in the Cajun and Acadian
homelands.
"Last Kiss" is his first primarily English-language release
in 17 years. We hope you can join us for these sure-to-be-unique evenings
inside his expansive and singular bilingual songbook in the company of his
gifted and accomplished musical friends.
