Lâche Pas: Culture, Music, and Identity through Education

Meet Geno Delafose one of the few native French-speaking Louisiana musicians under the age of 60. A Creole Cowboy by profession, he was raised with music and French in the prairies around Eunice. His grandparents were sharecroppers, and his father was a legendary Zydeco accordionist. To pass his culture on to the next generation, Geno leads workshops on Louisiana music with the Lâche Pas Vermilion program.
