Chris Webb (Cajun Accordions, guitar, vocals):

 A 25 year resident of Shreveport, LA, Chris previously played lead guitar in Tried and True, appearing at all the Region's bluegrass festivals.  For 1998 and 1999, he facilitated the weekly pub jams at downtown Shreveport's Noble Savage Tavern, a role which requires instrumental and stylistic versatility.  He is also a member of the variety trio The Surreal McCoys, with whom he got his first taste of playing Cajun music.  He hopes soon to add to the band some 5 string banjo, which he has recently taken up.

Elaine Webb (fiddle, mandolin, vocals):

a graduate of Fair Park H. S. and Northwestern State University of Louisiana, Elaine is a violinist with the Shreveport Symphony Orchestra, who teaches Orchestra in Caddo Parish public schools, and violin in the Centenary Suzuki School.  She is a member of the Acadian String Quartet, which performs for many weddings and events in the area

Rob Parker (bass, vocals): 

born in Houston, Rob was raised in Shreveport, attended LSU and the University of Louisiana at Lafayette and played guitar and bass both in Baton Rouge and in Lafayette where he became a "born-again Cajun."  Locally, Rob has been a bass player in the Irish band Scruffy Murphy.

Joe Agostini (drums & vocals):

Joe started playing drums at 13.  His first "big gig" was the 1964 World's Fair in New York.  That was it, he was hooked.  During his career he has shared the stage with many local, regional, and national acts.  He also anchored the house bands at many Shreveport area nightclubs and attended the legendary Lakeside School of Music on Milam Street in Shreveport.  While living in Lafayette he fell in love with not only Cajun Music but all music with a "Louisiana Sound."
