Biography

Easily the biggest zydeco star of the 1990s, Beau Jocque heralded the rise of the genre's new, urbanized style; infusing his high-octane sound with elements of rock, soul, hip-hop and even reggae, he bridged the gap between traditional Creole culture and contemporary music to create a funky, bass-heavy hybrid calculated for maximum mainstream appeal. Born Andrus Espre in Duralde, LA, in 1952,… Read more in Amazon's Beau Jocque and the Zydeco Hi-Rollers Store

Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com essential recording

If it's sheer musical power and blinding tempos you seek, then as far as zydeco goes, no one drives as hard or whips up a dance floor quicker than accordionist Beau Jocque and his band, the aptly named Zydeco Hi-Rollers. A relative newcomer to the south Louisiana music scene, Beau Jocque has developed a style that includes lots of heavy, funky bass, shown here in tunes like "'Gardez donc! (Look at That!)" and "Comin' In." Although it's the only cover on this disc, the selection of Clifton Chenier's "Do Right Sometime" was a sweet choice. --Robert Baird

(REAL NAME)   
Once again I have to say, if you want good zydeco dance music, this CD is a must have. You'll play it over and over again while enjoying every minute of it. This artist definately deserves recognition. Young or old I assure you, you will not regret this purchase. This is Zydeco Music at its finest.

5.0 out of 5 stars If you want to dance Zydeco, git Beau Jocque!, July 31, 2008
By Northwest Dancer (Seattle, WA) - See all my reviews
Beau Jocque is one of the greatest if not the greatest Zydeco musician ever. I learned to dance Zydeco to some of his songs - his arrangements are the most danceable and soulful. Chere Mignon is a great Zydeco waltz, and Hucklebuck is one of the most fun songs for dancing Zydeco. His version of Bonsoir, Moreau (Oh Bye Moreau) is hypnotic. He died young but his music lives on and brings joy to lots of dancers.
