Poisson Rouge Music

Formed in 2019, Poisson Rouge is a Lafayette, LA-based band that seamlessly blends the old-style Cajun sound with contemporary influences. At the helm is singer-songwriter and accordionist Kylie Griffin, whose heartfelt French lyrics create a captivating and unique breed of Cajun music. What sets Poisson Rouge apart is their dedication to educating audiences about Louisiana culture, with half of the band members being music educators themselves. With pride in their Louisiana roots, Poisson Rouge is boldly redefining the landscape of Cajun music.
