DESCRIPTION:Curley Taylor and his band\, Zydeco Trouble are bringing their unique sound all the from Creole country\, Grand Coteau Louisiana! Get those dancing shoes ready for Curley’s soulful\, bluesy vocals and the band’s hard driving zydeco beat!  Whether they’re performing at a dance hall in the bayou or rocking festival stages around the world\, Curley Taylor & Zydeco Trouble bring an unmistakable energy that always gets people on their feet. For fans of good music and a good time\, you can’t go wrong when Curley Taylor comes to town. \nCurley Taylor tours extensively throughout the US and Canada\, playing festivals and clubs from New York to San Diego and from Florida to Seattle\, all the way to Montreal. Curley has played major festivals including Rhythm and Roots in Ninigret RI\, the Waterfront Blues Festival in Portland OR and Jazz Fest in New Orleans. Often playing to audiences who have never heard Zydeco music before\, making fans wherever he goes.  And with his unique style of blues and soul flavored Zydeco\, Curley will keep EVERYONE dancing well into the night. \nCURLEY TAYLOR’S MUSICAL JOURNEY:\nCurley Taylor was born and raised in Grand Coteau Louisiana and has been around music all of his life. At the age of 16 Curley started playing drums in his father’s band\, Jude Taylor & His Burning Flames\, a band deep in Louisiana Blues\, Soul and Zydeco. By age of 25\, Curley had played drums with some of Louisiana’s musical legends\, including: CC Adcock\, Steve Riley\, John Hart\, “L’il” Bob and the Lollipops\, and his uncle’s\, “L’il” Buck Senegal and Wayne “Blue” Burns. He toured with CJ Chenier\, son of the “King of Zydeco” Clifton Chenier. His experience as a drummer emblazoned in Curley the fundamental importance of the lock down rhythm dancers crave. At 25 Curley hit the road with his own band “Zydeco Trouble” delivering Zydeco with a rich Gospel\, Soul\, Hip Hop-tinged sound. \nIn 2003 Curley was ready to make the move and launch his own band – Curley Taylor & Zydeco Trouble. His debut CD “Country Boy” was released to rave reviews. Artists familiar with Zydeco compared Curley’s music to that of the late\, great Beau Jocque. “It’s a high compliment\,” Curley replied\, “but Country Boy is only the start.” Curley has been playing\, touring and recording ever since. Since his debut CD\, Curley has released six more CDs of original music\, making him one of the most prolific composers in Zydeco. His latest project “Rise Up” was released in 2018. \nCurley’s bluesy\, soulful vocals and the band’s hard driving Zydeco beat blend to create high-energy dance music for all audiences. Curley’s music is true to its roots in Zydeco and Blues\, but contemporary enough to appeal to a broad range of music lovers. \n—————————— \nPRESENTED BY \nRochester Cajun Zydeco Network … with Support from Lafayette Travel – www.lafayettetravel.com  \nLOCATION \nHarmony House\, 58 East Main St\, Webster\, NY 14580 \nDATE    Friday\, September 26\, 2025 \nTIME\n7:00 PM – Doors open\n7:15 PM – Zydeco dance lesson\n8:00-11:00 PM – It’s show time!!!  \nTICKETS\nAdvance – $20\nDay of Show – $25\n$10 with student ID\nKids 14 and under are FREE!!\nRCZN Members pay advance price at the door \n  \nADVANCE TICKET OPTIONS\nONLINE: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/1612093959429 \nDIRECT from Bruce Handelman (no fees): call/text 585-727-4119 \nIN PERSON: Bop Shop Records\, 1460 Monroe Ave\, Brighton NY 14618\nRCZN MEMBERS: Pay advance price at door \n MORE INFO\n(585) 727-4119\nEMAIL US  \nTHINGS TO KNOW ABOUT OUR CAJUN/ZYDECO DANCE COMMUNITY \n\nAll are welcome.
