What are some really Louisiana blues, cajun soundin’ songs/artisit?

I recently went down to New Orleans and I’m trying so hard to find some music like the music I found there. I’m not looking for quantity, but rather really good quality thick New Orleans music. Thanks
Artists or songs would be great.

Zydeco is really the "cajun soundin’" stuff you’re thinking of.Buckwheat Zydeco and Clifton Chenier are probably the two best known zydeco artists.
As far as blues players go – Slim Harpo,Guitar Slim,Sonny Landreth(a personal favorite and probably the best slide guitarist alive) and Monte Montgomery should get you started in the right direction.


Louisiana and Cajun?

I just want to say, when you live in new orleans and anywhere else for that matter in louisiana, most people do not listen to banjo cajun music.

I cant tell you how much it aggravates me to watch movies based in louisiana and all you hear is banjos and those wash board things with the spoons. and not everyone talks in a cajun or countyry accent!

DOES ANYONE ELSE AGREE WITH ME!
Im happy to see that im not the only one with this opinion! :)
Oh and most people do not live in a swamp and drive Volkswagen big. And ive lived her for 30 years and have never met anyone with an air boat!
Wow. i dont know what happened before. i meant to say volkswagen Things (you know the jeep looking thing with no roof)

Yes, it IS aggravating. I’m a New Orleans tourguide and I would always tell my groups that New Orleans is NOT Cajun, and has NO Cajuns living there. Yes, you can find Cajun food and music in New Orleans, but I tell them that to see the REAL Cajun culture, they have to go to south central La. What gets my goat is that people from everywhere else think that all Southerners should speak with a Southern accent, and New Orleans people most certainly DO NOT have a Southern accent. I tell people the Cajun accent is very distinct and is easily differentiated from a Southern accent. I don’t speak with a Southern accent, because I spent my childhood in the Midwest, though I was born in Jefferson Parish and lived in Luling till age 6.
