SUMMARY:Zydeco-A-Go-Go
DESCRIPTION:Originating from the heart of Philadelphia\, PA\, this all-star lineup boasts a colorful group of personnel with decades of experience. Their mission was spreading worldwide the gospel of soulful rocking rhythm & blues. Seasoning off the group nicely on percussion is the newest member Pamela Eshelman. She brings to the band a swinging sense of rhythm and a truly contagious on-stage enthusiasm. Whether Zydeco A-Go-Go is playing a neighborhood street party\, big outdoor music festival\, downtown nightclub\, small-town fair\, black-tie dinner dance fundraiser\, college dance concert\, backyard crawfish boil\, or one of those non-stop everybody’s-up-and-dancin’ wedding receptions\, they always deliver fresh\, exciting\, irresistible dance music. They love to give the people a Zydeco Dance Party!\, which incidentally is also the name of their 1999 debut CD release.
