Psycho Zydeco, or the Psychos as their fans affectionately dub them,  have established themselves as the country’s premier roots act specialising in the high-energy, uplifting style of music known as zydeco. This music was originally born in the swamplands and bayou area of Louisiana’s Deep South. Psycho Zydeco have created their own distinctive Australian style. Driving washboard and funky, powerful drums underpin bluesy accordion melodies that weave together music designed for dancing.

Psycho Zydeco’s fast paced blend of bluesy grooves, metal percussion and general craziness propels people out of their seats and onto the dance floor. Washboards, industrial sized Cajun triangles, wailing sax and guitar team up with the pumping squeezebox to create a compelling onstage spectacle. The heady mix of traditional Cajun, modern zydeco, blues and funk conjures an atmosphere of festivity.

With performances at every major music festival nation-wide, TV and radio appearances and three tours of the U.K. and Europe, Sydney based Psycho Zydeco are one of the most successful touring ‘blues/roots’ acts in Australia. Their first three recordings, Swamp Box and Sell Your Soul, and Zydeco Factory were favourably received by fans and critics alike. The band has just recorded their fourth album “Get On Board” and are busy once again with promotional and touring duties.
