"Buckwheat
leads one of the best party bands in America; he can
pump out zydeco two-beats or shift into rolling 12-bar
blues, steaming all the way."

BUCKWHEAT
ZYDECO HITS THE JACKPOT!
Buck’s First Studio Disc in Eight Years
"With (Jackpot!) the first studio
recording in eight years, the long wait has been rewarded. Buck has
never sounded better, a brilliantly dexterous musician belting it
out with a terrific set of pipes while exuding consummate showmanship.
From beginning to end, Buck throws it down and slams it sideways,
delivering the ultimate nonstop party ride..."
- OFFBEAT MAGAZINE (NEW ORLEANS) -

and in Stores NOW! |

Jackpot!,
on Buck’s own label, Tomorrow Recordings, combines soulful original
tunes, inspired playing and singing, and the trademark exuberance
that’s made him the world’s best-loved zydeco artist,
and has earned Buckwheat Zydeco the sobriquet “the world’s
greatest party band.” There’s plenty of Buckwheat’s
signature accordion, and for the first time ever Buck specifically
features his soulful mastery of the horizontal keyboard on a fantastic
three-song Hammond B3 “Encore featuring Organic Buckwheat.”

If
you've seen a Buckwheat show, you know what to expect: rocking,
stomping, good time Creole party music. If you haven't seen Buckwheat
Zydeco live, you're missing one of the music world's most exciting
and fun performers. Don't just take our word for it, read
what dozens of critics have said.
This
road warrior is constantly touring all over the country and the
world. The itinerary
page will find a show near you. Chances
are very good that we'll be close soon.
We
also invite you to sign
up for "Buckgrams" and join the Buckwheat
Zydeco family. Buck's music is for everybody! It brings people together
-- if you've been to one of our shows you know it's true. This web
site is our family album, full of news
and information, music
samples and great
photos.
Buckwheat
plays his music to make people happy -- and if there is something
missing from this web site that would make you happy, please tell
us about it. If you have pictures from a show, comments,
or a story about Buck -- send them over. We'll definitely check
them out, even though we may not be able to respond to everyone.
Who knows, they may end up here for everyone to see.
We've
come a long way from our first online experiences in Louisiana,
which as the photos
relate, involved a rod and reel instead of a computer and modem.
Now that we've got this site rolling, we're working to keep BuckwheatZydeco.com
as enjoyable as reeling in a redfish. So please keep checking back...and
thanks for stopping by.
