Wayne Toups, Steve Riley, Corey Ledet Nominated for Grammy Award
A couple of years ago the Grammys decided to do away with a bunch of categories including the Cajun & Zydeco category. That hasn't stopped our great Louisiana artists from getting nominated in other categories though.
Our area is represented well in the Best Regional Roots Music Album category as both Corey Ledet and the all-star group The Band Courtbouillon featuring Wayne Toups, Steve Riley and Wilson Savoy were nominated.
Here are the nominees in this category:
Malama Ko Aloha (Keep Your Love)
Keola Beamer

Shi Kéyah – Songs For The People
Radmilla Cody

Weldon Kekauoha
