Zydeco Dance in Houston: Black Cowboys, Trail Rides and Creole Roots | If Cities Could Dance

Houston’s zydeco dance scene brings joy and a driving rhythm to partner dancing, and in this episode, we explore the dance’s deep roots in Creole culture and music. What was called La-la in Southeastern Louisiana Creole communities became known as zydeco in Houston with the influence of R & B and the ‘King of Zydeco’, Clifton Chenier. Houston is where zydeco is thriving, evolving and reaching a broader audience, around trail-riding clubs who dance together after their rides to the accordion-driven sounds of zydeco bands with a touch of hip-hop. As infectious as zydeco is, it’s grown popular worldwide, but what hasn't changed is how zydeco brings community together in Houston. EDITOR'S NOTE: This episode was filmed in February of 2020, before the coronavirus pandemic swept through cities in the United States. Houston is currently experiencing a surge in COVID-19 cases and we hope the community remains safe at home until it’s time to dance together again. ⬇Download full content description here: https://bit.ly/2E3BYln ⬇Download transcript here: https://bit.ly/3fSvxjk NEW SEASON 3 EPISODES EVERY OTHER TUESDAY! 🔔Hit that SUBSCRIBE button! 🔔 https://bit.ly/SubscribeKQEDArts Our history.
