Biography

Since starting out in the 1980s, Buckwheat Zydeco (aka Stanley Dural), a performer as musically vital as the legendary Clifton Chenier, has gone on to be the most commercially successful zydeco act ever. Playing a slightly modernized, furiously energetic brand of accordion-led zydeco, Dural's funk- and R&B-influenced music has won him several Grammy nominations and inclusion in many film soundtracks.
