Kyle Huval and the Dixie Club Ramblers: Amédée's Waltz
Kyle Huval and the Dixie Club Ramblers: Amédée's Waltz
Released in 2022
Featuring 11 new songs in the Cajun French language, Kyle Huval & The Dixie Club Rambler’s new album “Amédée’s Waltz” is an inspiring union of originality and tradition. Huval, one of the top accordionists of his generation, began playing French music at the age of 11 with the goal of becoming a songwriter in order to perpetuate the Cajun language and the Cajun sentiment by creating new songs for the Cajun music repertoire. With a variety of musical arrangements from an acoustic trio to a full dancehall band, “Amédée’s Waltz” is a refreshing collection of seemingly timeless new two-steps and waltzes rich with emotion and poetry straight from the heart of Cajun country.
