Acadiana Center for the Arts

For two decades, Valcour Records has stood at the heart of Louisiana’s roots renaissance — preserving the traditions of Cajun, Creole, zydeco, and folk while amplifying the voices shaping its future. Founded in Eunice, Louisiana, by partners Joel Savoy and Phillip LaFargue, Valcour has become a touchstone for the state’s cultural identity, producing award-winning albums and nurturing artists whose music carries the sound and soul of Acadiana to audiences around the world.

Twenty Years of Valcour Records

Two heavyweight guitar slingers and singers find a common ground with their deep history in Honky Tonk and Rock’n’Roll and their command of the electric guitar. Bill Kirchen is a founding father of Commander Cody. Redd Volkaert spent many years as the lead guitarist for the mighty Merle Haggard, and has played and recorded with a who’s who of greats, from Dale Watson to Brad Paisley to Billy Gibbons.
