Zydeco-Reggae Fest 5

Zydeco band LeeRon Zydeco & the Hot Tamales and reggae group the Dreadbeats host Zydeco-Reggae Fest Five this Sunday (Aug. 19), at the Rose Garden Grove in Williamsville. The outdoor event runs from 2pm until dusk, with performances throughout the day by numerous local musicians, and an open percussion jam for kids and adults. Festival host Ron Davis (a.k.a. LeeRon Zydeco) will be giving out samples of his famous “Bite of the Bayou” food specialties, and other Cajun-Caribbean food and drink will be available. The Rose Garden Grove offers a spacious tented area so the event can take place rain or shine, and cajun dance lessons will be offered for those who want a little help geting into the groove.
