Buckwheat Zydeco


MONDAY, OCTOBER 3, 2016

We said goodbye to Buck at a beautiful, moving ceremony on a lovely, warm, crisp
day in Lafayette. Our hearts are heavy, but he is at rest now. RIP Stanley
Dural, Jr. November 14, 1947 – September 24, 2016.


SEPTEMBER 24, 2016

It is with deep sadness that I have to announce that our great, beloved leader
Stanley “Buckwheat” Dural, Jr. has passed away. He died at 1:32 AM Louisiana
time, keeping musician’s hours right to the bitter end. I am grieving for my
best friend and colleague of more than 30 years. But, as this great road warrior
once said: “Life is a tour, and it’s all about how you decide to get where
you’re going…I don’t want to ignore the bad things in life, but I want to
emphasize the good things.” Buck made everything and everyone he touched better
and happier. RIP my dear friend, my brother.

— Ted Fox


BUCKWHEAT ZYDECO AND LIBRARY OF CONGRESS HONOR WILLIE NELSON

Buckwheat Zydeco is thrilled and honored to perform on “Willie Nelson: The
Library of Congress Gershwin Prize for Popular Song,” a PBS music special
honoring singer-songwriter Willie Nelson’s receipt of the Library of Congress
Gershwin Prize for Popular Song. The event is taping on November 18, 2015 at the
Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) Constitution Hall in Washington,
D.C., and it will premiere Friday, January 15, 2016 at 9 p.m. ET on PBS stations
nationwide (check local listings), as part of PBS Arts. The program will also be
broadcast at a later date via the American Forces Network to American service
men and women and civilians at U.S. Department of Defense locations around the
world.

The broadcast will feature performances by Nelson, as well as Buckwheat Zydeco,
Edie Brickell, Leon Bridges, Rosanne Cash, Ana Gabriel, Jamey Johnson, Alison
Krauss, Raul Malo of The Mavericks, Neil Young, Lukas Nelson & Promise of the
Real, and past Gershwin Prize honoree Paul Simon — with Don Was as music
director (program subject to change).

The Library of Congress Gershwin Prize for Popular Song is named in honor of the
legendary George and Ira Gershwin. This award recognizes the profound and
positive effect of popular music on the world’s culture. The prize is given
annually to a composer or performer whose lifetime contributions exemplify the
standard of excellence associated with the Gershwins.

The Gershwin Prize was first awarded to Paul Simon in May 2007 – and Buckwheat
Zydeco also performed on that program, dueting with Lyle Lovett. It was then
presented to Stevie Wonder in February 2009, Sir Paul McCartney in June 2010,
the songwriting team of Burt Bacharach and Hal David in May 2012, Carole King in
2013, and Billy Joel in 2014.

With a career that spans six decades, Nelson’s music pushes genre boundaries and
his lyrics give voice to America’s heartland. He put his imprint forever on
country music and introduced it to new audiences by expanding music’s avenues in
the 1970s to create “outlaw country.” He has continually broadened his musical
language, crossing into jazz, blues, folk, rock and Latin styles. A guitar
virtuoso with a unique voice, Nelson is an artist whose work continues to
inspire new musicians of diverse genres.

“Willie Nelson has redrawn the boundaries of country music throughout his
storied career,” said David Mao, Acting Librarian of Congress. “The sincerity,
longevity and diversity of his appeal perfectly reflect the spirit of the
Gershwin Prize for Popular Song. Since the Library began presenting the prize,
PBS has brought this celebration of creativity directly and more broadly to the
American people. We’re pleased that people across the country will be able to
join in the recognition of this great artist and songwriter.”

BUCKWHEAT ZYDECO REACHES OUT TO FANS ON “BUCKWHEAT’S WORLD” YOUTUBE CHANNEL WITH
NEW MUSIC AND MORE

Buckwheat’s World, Buckwheat Zydeco’s new YouTube channel, brings a unique
inside view of southwest Louisiana’s culture through the music, life and times
of its star, Stanley “Buckwheat” Dural, Jr. and his band. The channel features
short video episodes showcasing Buckwheat Zydeco in new live performances, and
entertaining and intimate personal mini-documentaries that tell the story of
this unforgettable character.

Buck, band members and friends are presented at work and at play at home and on
the road. New episodes are produced and uploaded regularly and notified to
subscribers. Buckwheat’s World is created by two-time Peabody Award winning
filmmakers, Louis Alvarez and Andrew Kolker, who have made a number of classic
films about Louisiana, and longtime Buckwheat Zydeco collaborator, Ted Fox.

“YouTube is where people are hearing and seeing music today,” said Fox.
“Buckwheat Zydeco was the first zydeco band with a major label deal, then the
first to start its own label. Now we’re the first with our own YouTube channel.
We always strive for the best way to reach our fans and make new ones.”

Viewers of Buckwheat’s World have various viewing options: The episode,
Playback, documents a behind-the-scenes look at the creation and debut of a new
song. The Dockside Sessions playlist offers exciting live in the studio videos
of Buckwheat Zydeco playing their favorites… including performances with pals
like C.J. Chenier, Keith Frank, and Roddie Romero.

Buckwheat’s World also allows viewers to spend some quality time with a truly
unique character, Stanley “Buckwheat” Dural, Jr. – a Grammy winner and Jimmy
Fallon guest who grew up picking cotton at age 5. Fans have experienced the joy,
enthusiasm, dynamism and decency of Buck’s personality on stage, and showing
that and telling his story is what Buck and the makers of Buckwheat’s World want
to unfold through as these mini-documentary episodes.


BUCKWHEAT ZYDECO KICKS OFF FINAL FALLON SHOW

Jimmy Fallon, the guy who has dueted with Bruce Springsteen, Neil Young, Eddie
Vedder, President Obama and anyone else he wanted, chose Buckwheat Zydeco to
kick off Friday’s final Late Night with Jimmy Fallon show. Fallon takes over
“The Tonight Show” from Jay Leno on February 17.

Playing “On a Night Like This” from Buckwheat Zydeco’s first Island Records
album of the same name, super fan Jimmy Fallon performed alongside Buckwheat
Zydeco and The Roots. The show opened “cold” without any announcement except a
tight close-up of “Buckwheat” spelled out in jeweled letters on Stanley
“Buckwheat” Dural’s accordion. Buckwheat and Jimmy traded vocals on Buckwheat
Zydeco’s cover of this little known Bob Dylan tune. Jimmy rocked out on a red
guitar, and the two played out the song with a rousing instrumental throw down.

Jimmy said he wanted Buckwheat Zydeco’s appearance on his last show to be a
surprise. He introduced and thanked Buckwheat from his desk after the
performance, and displayed the band’s latest, Grammy-winning Alligator Records
album, “Lay Your Burden Down”.

“Man we had a blast,” said Dural. “It was such an honor to be a part of this.
It’s history! And Jimmy and The Roots couldn’t have been nicer. It felt like our
home away from home.”


BUCKWHEAT ZYDECO’S “BAYOU BOOGIE”

BUCKWHEAT ZYDECO’S BAYOU BOOGIE Buck’s back with his first new kids’ album in 15
years! Order now from Amazon.com Buckwheat Zydeco’s Bayou Boogie is out now on
the Music For Little People label. This family dance party collection from the
bayous of Southwest Louisiana also features children’s music superstars Laurie
Berkner and Dan Zanes. Buckwheat Zydeco’s Bayou Boogie is the long-awaited
follow up to Buck’s 1994 beloved children’s album, Choo Choo Boogaloo. That
recording won an Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Platinum Award and received a Parents’
Choice “Approval” rating as well as 5 Stars (Top rating) on Amazon.com, Barnes &
Noble.com, and Epinions.com. Offbeat says: “Like it’s predecessor, Bayou
Boogie is a joyous blast of zydeco, funk and R&B that teaches kids about the
heritage and instruments of zydeco while inspiring the whole family to get up
and dance.” Just as Buck is so well known for in his legendary live shows:
smoking accordion, rocking Hammond B3 organ, rollicking rub board and sizzling
guitar licks join together on this recording to create a musical gumbo of Creole
culture that can almost be smelled and tasted. Buck guides children and parents
through a rollicking mix of some of the most family-friendly classic rock ‘n’
roll tunes and great original songs performed in a Zydeco style as only
Buckwheat Zydeco can. The result is a rich tribute to this unique melting pot of
American culture. Buckwheat Zydeco’s Bayou Boogie is designed to introduce
children to a fun time at Buck’s place on the bayou, and it kicks into high gear
with the joyous “We’re Having a Party.” Buck and friends get kids into a festive
mood with good-time boogie classics like “Barefootin’” and “Walking the Dog,”
and Buck and guests all put their right feet in on “Hokey Pokey.” Buck’s own
“The Mice Ate My Rice” and “Ripsy Dipsy” prove that nothing stops him from
having a good time, even when “Everything Hurts.” Vavada casino – entrance to
the official site. Vavada online casino is a virtual gambling establishment, you

celebration ends as happily as it started with “The Party’s Over.” “Children are
our future and our treasure,” says Buck. “Nothing makes me happier than seeing
kids have a good time, and I’m so proud to be able to introduce them to my
musical roots and get them boogying to the sounds of Zydeco music.”
