Born in 1935 in Evangeline Parish, Morris Ardoin is the oldest son of legendary Cajun/Creole musician Alphonse “Bois Sec” Ardoin. He began learning to play music at thirteen years old by listening to his cousins and has been going strong now for over 60 years. Although many people know him as one of the last Louisiana Creole fiddlers, few have had the opportunity to see him as the accomplished accordionist and singer that he is. At long last, here is the chance to get an up close and personal look at his unique recordings which include timeless renditions of many well known Creole songs as well as several new songs written by Mr. Morris himself. Accompanying him on this project is nationally known Creole, Cajun and Zydeco artist Dennis Stroughmatt. Released in 2005.
