Riley, of Mamou, LA, is a considered by many a master of the Cajun accordion . The rest of the band includes Kevin Wimmer on the fiddle, Sam Broussard on guitar, Kevin Dugas on drums and Brazos Huval on bass.

The band has recorded 11 CD’s the majority on Rounder Records.  The band’s February 2011 release is Grand Isle, taking the title from one of the Louisiana towns hit by last summer’s BP oil disaster.
