Cajun music is a genre of folk music that originated in the Acadiana region of Louisiana, United States. It is characterized by its lively rhythms, the use of the accordion and the fiddle as lead instruments, and lyrics sung in a mixture of French and English or Cajun French. Cajun music has its roots in the traditional folk music of the French-speaking Acadian people who settled in Louisiana after being expelled from Canada in the 18th century. Over time, it has been influenced by other musical styles such as country, blues, and zydeco. Cajun music is often played at social gatherings such as parties, dances, and festivals in Louisiana and other parts of the southern United States.
