SEAUXLEAUX is the second album from Louis Michot, fiddler songwriter and lead vocalist for
two-time Grammy winners Lost Bayou Ramblers done under his own name. SEAUXLEAUX
was recorded in a single live session at Dockside Studio in Maurice, Louisiana by Tony Daigle
on December 2, 2024. This session was filmed and edited by Olivia Perillo, with additional
camerawork by Rush Jagoe for video release. SEAUXLEAUX is being released by Nouveau
Electric Records on May 30 on digital download and streaming platforms.
SEAUXLEAUX is collection of songs that tells Michot’s stories and those of the Louisiana
French experience. The repertoire on this album comes mostly from the traditional Cajun canon,
representing a diverse range of obscure but powerful work by Louisiana songwriters. Michot
performs them using an unusually full and ambitious sonic palette with separate tracks assigned
to vocal, vocal space-echo delay, foot stomp, foot stomp space-echo delay, and fiddle or guitar.
There was no overdubbing. Each tune is presented exactly as captured in real time, live in the
studio.
