Chris Webb sings and plays at Columbia Cafe on Thursday evenings in March, 7 to 9 pm

Leader of the popular Cajun group called the Cajun-Dixon Line Band, Chris Webb is the relatively rare North Louisiana squeezebox player. To hear Webb on accordion and his wife, Elaine, on fiddle, is to journey across the history and geography of the Bayou State.

A consummate musician, Webb can play all the standards, whether they be country, Cajun or Top 40. As you see in the photo, his voice and sense of rhythm can be also be augmented by guitar or banjo. He is also adept at working in guest musicians and making them sound good, too.

He takes over from the Recliners at Columbia Cafe on Thursday evenings in March, 7 to 9 pm.
