The good times will roll August 8 when Robin Lacey & DeZydeco bring their mix of zydeco, blues, traditional country and roots sounds to the Music@BCM stage at Behringer-Crawford Museum.
With their unique instrumentation, which includes accordion, saxophone and rubboard, the six-piece group takes inspiration from the roots of New Orleans and Louisiana music and culture, adding original songwriting and classics to the mix.
Zydeco music stems from the French Creole of southwest Louisiana, blending blues and R&B. The term is a sound-alike to the Creole idiom for hard times. Its brisk tempos, accordion and washboard rhythms will pull you to your feet to dance those blues away!

Doors open at 6 p.m. with refreshments available for sale and the concert runs from 7 to 9 p.m. Concert-goers are invited to bring folding chairs or blankets for seating.
