Feufollet Formed in 1995 when accordionist/singer Chris Stafford was 8 and fiddler Chris Segura was 11, Feufollet quickly became known as one of the most exciting Cajun bands in Acadiana, not because of their youth but because of their obvious musical ability and the vivacity with which they approached the traditional music of the area. In the thirteen years since Feufollet first began performing, they have built upon a regional popularity, becoming an attraction at folk festivals and performance venues not only in the South, but throughout the United States and French Canada. Though members of the band have come and gone, the musical core formed by Stafford's accordion and Segura's fiddle and their combined interest in giving breath to old songs has remained the same. The present line-up, which has been intact since 2003, finds Stafford and Segura in good musical company. Singer Anna Laura Edmiston, a native French speaker who grew up in Montreal and Louisiana, brings passion and talent to the songs she sings and guitarist Josh Caffery, formerly of Cajun/swing outfit The Red Stick Ramblers, adds the ingredient of strong acoustic and electric lead guitar to Feufollet's sound. The rhythm section, anchored by the furiously solid drumming of Stafford's younger brother Michael and Taylor Guarisco's exuberantly funky bass lines, has never been tighter. Feufollet has been a band of young prodigies for so long, it can be hard to talk about them as just a band. But that's just what they are: a band of extremely talented and seasoned musicians who continue to explore the vital music of their culture and region, perhaps with more excitement and ability than they ever have before.
