It starts out with an infectious fiddle line. A crisply strummed guitar comes bouncing in and soon, drums, bass and t-fer have all joined pursuit on the album's opener La Danse du Feufollet. The melody's escapingly familiar, its Cajun with a Celtic tinge, and its Beausoleil-like drive catches you off guard. Their average age might be 12, but their deft musicianship ranks them with peers decades older.

Beyond their growing musical virtuosity, what sets Feufollet apart from other young bands is this ability to speak?and especially sing?in Cajun French. Their mastery of the language along with the music has enabled them not only to understand songs from oral tradition, but has opened up the creative possibility of writing new material?all with a beguiling mix of authoritative voice and youthful passion, seriousness of purpose and artistic risk-taking.
