American Roots Concert Series: Prends Courage

This event has passed

In the heart of Lafayette, where Cajun spirit meets creative fervor, Prends Courage was born. This dynamic band is a testament to the power of music to transcend time and circumstance, inspired by the passing of Christopher Stafford and the enduring legacy of Feufollet’s “Prends Courage”.
With a sonic tapestry woven from the threads of tradition and innovation, Prends Courage conjures the essence of Cajun music’s past, present, and future. Jamie Lynn Fontenot’s guitar and vocals, Luke Huval’s accordion and angelic vocals, Elise Riley’s drums, Jo Vidrine’s bass, and Kelli Jones’s fiddle and vocals blend in a joyful celebration of life, love, and resilience. As they take the stage, Prends Courage embodies the joie de vivre that defines their heritage, inviting all to join in the dance, the song, and the enthusiasm that flows from their very being. Prends Courage shines bright, a beacon of light and laughter, reminding us all to prends courage – take heart – and let the music set us free.
