Zydeco by Birth: the story of the legendary Carriere/Carrier family of South Louisiana
Documentary Film
Zydeco by Birth will illustrate the evolution of Zydeco music and the history of Black French Creoles through the story of the Carriere/Carrier family. The Carrier family is a dynasty of Zydeco musicians whose story provides a window into the Louisiana Creole experience. The family story demonstrates how Black French Creole sharecroppers in the early 20th century created a unique Louisiana musical genre that continues to inspire musicians and dancers across the globe. Spanning over a century of oral and recorded tradition, living members of the Carrier family still perform and record (with notable Grammy success).
