Allons-y!

(Pronounced: ah-lawn-zee. Translation: "Let's Go!")

Musical synergy emerges when father/daughter duo Tony and Erin Daigle and friends perform their renditions of Cajun, Creole, folk, and patriotic songs in French and English. "Allons-y!" celebrates the cultural heritage of southern Louisiana by blending the spirit of Louisiana music with family bonds through songs, stories, and audience participation. Erin serves as lead vocalist and plays the accordion and fiddle complimented by Tony, on guitar and friends on percussion. Audience members are invited to play percussion or other instruments with "Allons-y!" and dancing is always encouraged.

During the past few decades, Tony has worked in the music business in Tennessee and Louisiana. But it was Erin who prompted her parents to perform heritage music with her while she was a student in the Lafayette French Immersion program during the 1990's. Their earliest special event performances included the groundbreaking of the Acadian Memorial, the 1999 Congres Mondial Reunion de Famille Daigle, and the annual CFMA Le Cajun Awards. Recent "Allons-y!" performances have included the New Orleans French Quarter Festival, Festival International de Louisiane, the Southeast Regional RV Rally and cultural workshop, and the Acadianapalooza showcase supporting Healthcare for Musicians in south Louisiana.
