Bonne Musique Zydeco Hyperion Outfall Serenaders (Opening Act) Bonne Musique Zydeco (BMZ), literally "good zydeco music," is a 6-member band specializing in the Creole music of Louisiana and east Texas. BMZ draws upon the style of traditional Cajun and Creole musicians, and the influences of the blues and New Orleans artists of the 1950s, 60s, and 70s to create a blend of music designed for dancing. Bervick J. Deculus, a native of Louisiana, bass player and leader of BMZ, founded the band in 1991. He is carrying on the tradition of his well-known family, which includes internationally recognized, Grammy Award winners Queen Ida and Al Rapone, and the innovative Beau Jocque, a circuit to draw in the area between New Orleans and Houston, who also gained international popularity before his early death in 1999. BMZ has featured several accomplished accordionists and recording artists, namely, Al Rapone, Willis Prudhomme, Jo Jo Reed, Christopher P. Ardoin and Bryant Keith Broussard. Many of these artists are featured on BMZ’s first recorded CD, Gumbo Mix.
