Why has dancing to Cajun music skyrocketed in popularity over the last few years? Eric and Suzy Thompson, two of the East Bay's most talented musicians, should know. They've enlisted a couple of acoustic music friends and formed the Aux Cajunals, playing to packed clubs throughout the Bay Area. (If you remember your high school French, you'll notice that the pronunciation of the band's name is significantly similar to the word occasional.)"

Dan Ouellete, The Express

Equally at home in a dance club, concert hall, or house party, the Aux Cajunals play the kind of old-fashioned Cajun music which has been an integral part of celebrations in southwest Louisiana for over 100 years. The Aux Cajunals' sound is hard-driving but not ear-splitting, inspiring listeners to dance the twostep or waltz, or just to soak up the rich textures of the acoustic instruments and the emotion-drenched French vocals. The Aux Cajunals Big Band, which includes bass and drums, adds zydeco and vintage rhythm and blues to the mix, including material from such great roots artists as Big Joe Williams, Memphis Minnie and Freddie King.
