Friday’s lineup includes Step Rideau & The Zydeco Outlaws, one of Houston’s musical mainstays for more than 15 years. On Saturday, C.J. Chenier & the Red Hot Louisiana Band are on the bill. The son of the legendary Clifton Chenier, C.J. mixes a little Motown with his zydeco. And on Sunday, Leon Chavis and the Zydeco Flames take the stage.
