First Studio Album In Four Years!

Steve Riley and the Mamou Playboys' new album has been 2 years in the making, and they are finally ready to release their 14th studio album: "Voyageurs". Recorded in Staffland Studios by Chris Stafford, the new album features original compositions along with covers of obscure Cajun/Creole songs from legends such as Dewey Balfa, Boozoo Chavis, Dennis McGee and Isom Fontenot. 
"We have poured all of our heart, souls and entire budget into the recording of the project," says Riley. "We now need to press and release the album. We are working with publicity and marketing company Rock, Paper, Scissors on the national release." 
"Voyageurs" will be the first album to feature singer, songwriter and Balfa alum Kevin Wimmer on fiddle. Wimmer is one of the most dynamic and respected fiddlers in Cajun music. With this robust lineup, "Voyageurs" promises to be one of The Playboys' finest albums yet. 

What We Need & What You Get

  • As an independent band, this is the work of blood, sweat and tears of a band with a passion for keeping Cajun music alive! We need your help for National distribution, marketing and publicity.
  • Get the new album. Want more? We've got it! T-shirts, posters, mugs, workshops and private Skype lessons to name a few. 

The Impact

  • By successfully funding this album, through YOUR contribution, we will be able to market and promote the record, promoting our heritage and culture to the world!

Risks & Challenges

  • We are a completely independent band with no big labels backing us. If we don't reach our funding goal, we may not be able to successfully impact the release of our new album Voyageurs.
  • By your contribution, we will be able to fund our marketing and distribution of the album independent of a label.
