Rosie Ledet Zydeco "Swing That Thing"
This is Rosie Ledet, born Bellard in 1971 in Church Point, Louisiana. She is an American Creole Zydeco accordion player and singer.At 16 she met her future husband Morris Ledet at a dance. He taught her to play Zydeco accordion and was so impressed with her style that he stepped aside , let her play lead and accompanied her on base guitar, touring with the Zydeco Playboys. They sure do lay down a heavy beat!
