Rolling Stones Join Multinational Zydeco Tribute Album Release
The Rolling Stones are participating in a tribute album celebrating the 100th anniversary of zydeco legend Clifton Chenier's birth, showcasing their reverence for the genre's influence on rock music. The album, titled "A Tribute to the King of Zydeco," features various icons like Taj Mahal and Lucinda Williams alongside Louisiana music stars, and is set for release on June 27 through Valcour Records and Smithsonian Folkways. Notably, the Stones' contribution includes a single, "Zydeco Sont Pas Sale," with Mick Jagger singing the original Creole lyrics, backed by Grammy-winning accordionist Steve Riley. This project reflects the deep musical roots shared between the Stones and zydeco traditions, highlighting the cultural and artistic crossovers between rock and Louisiana's rich musical heritage. The album and single aim to bring wider recognition to Chenier's pioneering work and its lasting impact on American music.
