Search - Zydeco Jump :: Cookin Up Some Zydeco

Zydeco Jump was formed in 1988 by accordionist George Butrumlis and drummer Gary Samolin. Together with bassist Alan Wright and Ben Taylor on frottoir (washboard), they are the hottest Zydeco music band this side of the Mississippi River. As further proof of their world wide appeal, they have just returned from their well attended and well received overseas festival performances at the Shaghai International Spring Festival and in New Caledonia. 2005 will find Zydeco Jump continuing to tour and introduce the music they love to a whole new audience. Starting out at The Club Dancing Bar in Smith St. Collingwood, Zydeco Jump soon became one of Melbourne's most popular bands packing out venues and dance floors.
