Rockin’ the bayou down in Louisiana

We’re a Possum Family Band

Press release

Story by Bïa Songs by Bïa, Erik West-Millette and Olaf Gundel Illustrations by Fanny Berthiaume Performances by Alexa Devine, Olaf Gundel and Annick Brémault

Take a trip to the bayou in this side-splitting, toe-tapping tale that pays homage to Louisiana’s Cajun and Zydeco music traditions. Every Saturday night at the Fais Dodo Thibaudeau, a suave young possum with a Zorro-like moustache takes the stage with his dobro to lead the band. In the audience, a pretty, doe-eyed possum fal.s for his charms. But just who could these plucky marsupials be? Mama and Papa Poss tell the story of how they first met and where their glory days as a musical duo began!
