With Renaissance, the liner notes explain that the album is an effort "to capture the spirit of old-time Cajun music, while adding savoir faire." With Paul Daigle on accordion and Dennis Boudreaux on fiddle, this is certainly the band to carry out that goal, combining a sure knowledge of tradition with musical virtuosity.
