Zachary Richard is one of the most versatile and talented singer/songwriters in the American musical lexicon. While he is widely credited with revitalizing Cajun and Zydeco music, his songwriting also runs the gamut from bluesy rockers to finely crafted pop songs and from high lonesome western blues, to stunningly rich experimental pieces and poignantly beautiful ballads. Zachary is the author of 3 books of poetry and a producer of documentary films. He is a man of deep conscience; an activist dedicated to the preservation of diversity in ecology and his Acadien cultural heritage.
From the beginning of his career in the early seventies, Zachary blended traditional Cajun and Zydeco music with Rock and Roll, creating a new idiom of American music which continues to flourish and grow among new generations of Louisiana-bred musicians.
Zachary Richard has enjoyed a diverse musical and literary career which has spanned more than 30 years. This website is dedicated to the celebration of this immensely talented man, his work and his pursuits.
