Honestly one of my go to pieces of advice for people asking for tips about Cajun and Louisiana Creole cultures for ocs; I just tell them to listen to the music. Go listen to Amédé Ardoin, go listen to the Balfa Brothers, go listen to Boozoo Chavis or Clifton Chenier, Beau Jocque maybe Wayne Toups, go listen to Steve Riley and the Mamou Playboys or Jourdan Thibodeaux et les Rôdailleurs, go listen to Rusty Metoyer or C. J. Chenier! I also suggest looking at LPB and Télé-Louisiane; engage with the media we create.
