Grammy Award Winner Chubby Carrier in Lake Charles

This weekend, you can go see the award-winning Chubby Carrier at Panorama Music House. Their swamp funky zydeco sound is sure to get you out of your seat. Chubby’s sound is a mix of blues, '70s funk, rock and roll, and zydeco.

Zydeco Junkie was named Best Zydeco or Cajun Album during the 53rd annual Grammy Awards celebration in February of 2011. Carrier is considered Zydeco royalty. His father, Roy Carrier, his grandfather, Warren Carrier, and his cousins, Bebe and Calvin Carrier, are all Zydeco legends who have helped pave the way for Zydeco music.

Chubby Carrier is from Church Pointe and holds a very special place in his heart for several causes including children, education, and advocating a smoke-free environment. Carrier also participates in several events that are aimed at increasing tourism.

Chubby Carrier and the Bayou Swamp Band will be playing this Saturday from 9:00pm to 12:00am. Panorama Music House is located at 331 Broad Street.
