Fiddler and singer Waylon Thibodeaux is one of the finest practitioners of the Cajun music tradition — a Breaux Bridge native whose high, lonesome fiddle playing and authentic command of the Cajun French repertoire have made him a beloved figure at festivals and dance halls across Louisiana and beyond.
Biography
Thibodeaux grew up in the heart of Cajun country and absorbed the tradition from childhood, developing a fiddle style rooted in the old recordings but alive to contemporary influences.

He has performed at Jazz Fest, the Festivals Acadiens, and stages worldwide, bringing Louisiana's French music tradition to audiences who return again and again for the authenticity and energy he brings to every performance.
