The Holiday Playgirls

The Holiday Playgirls

Friday/Saturday
Genre: Cajun Fiddle & Accordion
Location: USA

The Holiday Playgirls, anchored by Acadiana natives Juliane Mahoney and Renée Reed, interpret the canon of Louisiana French music with reverence and celebration. They have worked in the archives of the University of Louisiana’s Center for Louisiana Studies to develop a deep understanding of traditional music, and the Holiday Playgirls’ commitment to honest culture-bearing makes for a deep listening experience for anyone interested in the rich musical territory of Louisiana. This is the music that tells the story of a people – the lament of heartbreak and exile is there, right alongside the bounce of vigorous revelry that only Southwest Louisiana can produce.
