The Revelers have been bringing their party around the world for over a decade, and now they're adding a masterful voice to their celebrated line up, with the addition of fiddler/ singer, Kelli Jones!
With their Grammy-nominated legacy and reputation as innovators of Louisiana music, this ever-evolving supergroup continues to reinvent itself while staying true to their Cajun Country roots.
The brash blasts of the accordion, the shuffle of feet, the wailing vocals in old French… The sound of Cajun music is well-known around the world. But for Louisiana-based band The Revelers, it’s just the start of the story.
Headquartered in the city of Lafayette in Southwest Louisiana’s Cajun Country (New Orleans is home to jazz, but not a native home to Cajun music), the band is dedicated to the “holy trinity” of Cajun culture: hot music, all-night dancing, and great food. They tap into their deep of knowledge of Swamp Pop, Zydeco and old-school Louisiana dancehall music, synthesizing these different traditions into a new sound, their own sound.
The Revelers are:
- Kelli Jones / fiddle/ vocals (KC Jones/ Feufollet)
- Blake Miller / accordion
- Daniel Coolik / mandolin
- Dean Miller / sax (The Faux Paws)
- Trey Boudreaux / bass
- Glen Fields / drums
