Overview

Swampalachia blends the high energy and traditional sounds of Cajun swamps and Appalachian peaks into a whole new groove. A typical set list includes fusions of Cajun, Old Time, Honky-tonk and Blues. On this creative journey, they’ve created an entirely new, dynamic thing, including Bluegrass tunes done to a Cajun beat, Cajun tunes played Appalachian style, and even Appalachian songs reimagined in Cajun French.
Trent Van Blaircom and Jeff Benedict are long-time Asheville players who have come together in a creative spirit to break some new ground. Trent leads the powerhouse Cajun band Zydeco Ya Ya and Jeff fronts My New Favorites, a popular Americana band.
