HOT Cajun Music at Mulate's in Breaux Bridge, Louisiana

[jjsassy01]

Back a few years ago while passing through La., I stopped in at Mulate's for supper and ending up staying for a lot longer than I had intended.  I had a really large time with delightful and friendly folks....dancing and dancing all nite.....It was heaven on earth and I too wish to be there now....

[jldisme]

Oh man, Mulate's is heaven on earth! Wish I were there right now!

On 12-21-10 I drove east I-10 in a rental car from Houston to Vinton, Louisiana, I wish I could have listened to Cajun country music out in Calcasieu Parish. note: counties are "parishes" in LA. Also , Ali Landry was born in Breaux Bridge.

[timcomeau]

TDUB, That's it! I had to go down to the "Mardi Gras Cafe" here in San Diego and check out their stock of Boudin Blanc. Gonna have a bucket full tomorrow!

Cool to find this video. I met Jay Cormier on my way east to Daytona from San Diego. He was the house band at Mulates. That was in Oct. 2003. I wore my yellow T shirt from Mulates, which my sister had bought for me earlier! I remember he turned to the band and said in French, " Hey you guys, a Comeau from California!" Mulates was run by a woman named Goldie Comeau. I bought Jay's CD and still have it. I made sure I went down to the waters edge to touch Bayou Teche. I'm 11th generation Acadian.

[tdub1941]

A fabulous comment!

Very interesting!

Thanks!

Buckeye at heart, but loved Mulates 6 years ago. Wished I was there now.

[mtyemti]

[Bremsstrahlung1]

[lalopez05]

Wow, I'd never heard Cajun music before, but I like this. It sounds like a lot of fun! Love it!

[TheHelen61]

Hello Lousiana, Just been out to dinner at one of my favourite resturants near my home in Northern Ireland where they were playing great Cajun Music, which inspired me to order delicious Cajun Chicken from the menu. Need I say that it was delicious, but obviously with a great Northern Irish twist to the flavour.

Guinness was also imbibed. Say no more.

Lovely music and so lively and uplifting

[tdub1941]

What a fun comment! I'll bet your dinner was delicious! I wish I could have been there with you!

i tell you that im half irish and cajun and live in louisiana and love both irish and cajun music

[sp0ttedp0ny330]

@TheHelen61 hey there...if you want to truly enjoy that

Cajun poulet(chicken) then ask them to get JAX beer in

from New Orleans :-D will make it a PERFECT meal :)

(my Mother's family was from Ireland :-) the Maher's)

[Tonefid115]

Great band!

[RockinGymnast08]

Wow this is so funny ive found this!

My dad has been the drummer with Jay for many years! i was always listening to them at mulates! jamie is playing the drums, so i guess dad was out of town at the time

He has also been the drummer for Steve Riley and the Mamou Playboys for the past 20 years. Dad just started a new upcoming band called "High Performance" and they play at mulates sometimes now. So Check em out sometime!

[tdub1941]

I have never heard from Jay and I wonder if he is aware of the three videos I posted with him and his band. One of them has garnered the most hits of any video I have on YouTube and now that number is at 1422.

Thanks for your nice comment.

[RockinGymnast08]

lol knowing Jay....I dont think he gets around to a computer too often...lmaoo

[efsb]

We've met then - I was one of the English guys who played at Mulates with your dad and Jay a couple of years ago. Hope Kevin and you are both well!

[Football8622]

i live in Lou-se-annnnna

[wendytros]

Thanks for posting this video. Jay is actually my Uncle! I'm in the Navy so I haven't seen him play in several years so I really enjoyed seeing him here.

[tdub1941]

Glad you like it. This is one of three of Jay and band that I posted on my channel. I love them and listen to them frequently.

Thanks for your nice comment.

[Dontgupt208]

I LOVE Mulate's one of my favorite places to go!!! ..I'll have to make a video with the CD from Mulates, the music is so much better than it sounds here.

[DrumPhy45]

I love this kind of music because i am cajun

[silvertalon666]

@DrumPhy45 me too

[tdub1941]

I love it too & I'n not cajun!

It's just plain fun, great music!

[maryann2ll]

I have been there before and really loved it,Great music.

[tdub1941]

Thanks for watching!

[hungry4candy]

can u download this music?

[tdub1941]

Yes I can.

[tdub1941]

That Acordian Player and the Drummer are pretty darn good too.

Thanks for watching !

RagJazzMonkey

[davearonow]

fiddle player is WAY too good to be playing in this band.

[tdub1941]

Then I must assume that you are the fiddle player in this video!

[davearonow]

Nope. I'm not.

Although I am a fiddle player, so I have some appreciation of how good that guy really is. I dont mean any disrespect to the band, but they sound like average bar musicians. The fiddle player has a really polished and smooth tone and style. His pitch and intonation are perfect and the smoothness with which he plays, his riffs and just his repertoir of licks and whatnot are as good as anything out there. He could make some great money as a session player.

[efsb]

I've played with Jay and the band when I've visited from the UK - they're light years above "average bar musicans" - the fiddle player and drummer in this video are not regulars - they're depping. Jay's regular fiddle player is Jamie Bearb and his drummer Kevin Dugas of the Grammy-nominated Mamou Playboys

[ClaireConrad]

What in the world does "depping" mean? Five minutes on the Web brought me only proper names!

[efsb]

@ClaireConrad Depping = deputising = standing in for - Jamie Bearb is a stunning fiddle player normally, but was standing in for Kevin Dugas on this occasion.

[crazycuntryboy2]

AAAAAAAAAAEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! THat was awesome! Cheers from a Florida Cracker boy! Ya'll rock!

[jeannepbrown]

Laissez les bons temps rouler. We celebrate EVERYTHING here with music, dancing, beer, & food. It's great to be Cajun! Oh, great video by the way.

[tdub1941]

Yes! Let the Good times Roll!

Thanks for watching!

Incredibly good music, LIVE from Breaux Bridge.

Home of world famous slide guitarist Sonny Landreth.

Anyone planning a trip to Louisiana should try to get there during the Festival International de Louisiane.

Get some incredible food at Mulate's, go to the Festival, maybe even see Sonny and the boys at Grant Street. Things don't get any better than that!

I know, I've done it !

[thetruerock]

5 stars from me

[tdub1941]

thanks !

[fxmagnet]

these guys can come down to Australia any timelooks like everyone is having a ball wish zydeco would get up an running here

[Dunitlucky]

Hey Aussie, take a trip to Louisiana, these Cajuns are awesome good people. They like to have a good time as you can see & hear. Cajun food is wonderful too. One of the last colorful cultures still left here in the USA

[Kenonnoic]

'Taint Zydeco - its Cajun. Not much difference to an outsider, whole other place to a Cajun :-)

I reckon the entire world could do with more of both, and thats a fact.

[MissDaisy1967]

Is there more than one Mulate's? I went to New Orleans for the weekend in April of this year. I went to Mulate's twice and loved it. The music is awesome, service is wonderful and food was delicious. This was in the warehouse district, across the street from Riverwalk.

[tdub1941]

Yup, there are two of them that I know about. I don't think there are any others, but I could be wrong. I went to the Breaux Bridge location. It is a fun place with good food and night life!

Thanks for your comment.

Tom

[pierstheoneandonly]

Wonderful sounds. So this is Mulate's...that's the thing about places in novels, they are given a quality of being semi-mythical. You could expect detective Dave Robicheaux to walk in at any time here.

[peachpieband]

Let the bon temps rouley. Sweet fiddlin', 5 stars. (Michael, peachpieband.)

[tdub1941]

Merci Michael!

[tdub1941]

Thanks mate!

[jumbux1]

agree good people good music reminds you of the old hunkey weddings years ago[a better time i think love it

[3technique]

Oops sorry. I opened up the info thing and got it.  Play on!!

[3technique]

Mother - of - God. I am literally getting choked up as I listen to this. WHO ARE THESE GUYS?!!! What is the name of that song? I'm buying it tomorrow!!!!

[ysvilla49]

I remember on our way from Atlanta to Arizona we were told to stop at Mulates where they have great Cajun food. We were not told about the music, but when I entered the door I stopped DEAD in my tracks and my jaw just dropped. This music touched my soul and I felt I had come home....without knowing I was even missing something from my life. What does it mean?

I love how the whole family is included in this dancing and fun times. Definitely people of the earth, what God had intended.

[tdub1941]

Yup this is great music! Thanks for your nice comments! This kind of music is made for everybody to enjoy whether the beleive in a god or not. There are so many to choose from I just decided to heck with any of them, and just sit back and enjoy the music!

Yes they did, but it was on a Wednesday night and the bigger crowds hit later in the week and on the week end!

[Takuhai1993]

[tacomawhite]

Amazing that you posted this! We were at Mulate's in March 2007 and it was a high point of our visit. We plan to vacation and snowbird in Louisiana and will make Mulate's one of our regular haunts. Merci!

[efsb]

Kevin Dugas of Steve Riley's band is Jay's regular drummer - looks like the fiddle player is on drums and they've got a dep fiddle player in!

[tdub1941]

I just stopped in there one night on a trip from KC to Miami and grabbed these videos of Jay and associates! I don't know much about them other than I loved their music! These folks are the only Cajun group I have ever gotten video on.

Take care!

Yup, I agree. Mulate's is a great place. Fun atmosphere, and I really enjoyed their fried alligator. I seemed to be just right along with the Cajun waltzes and 2 step numbers. I can hardly wait to get back there again!
