Album Notes

This album contains the hit YouTube video of Amazing Grace in French (La Grâce du Ciel).
Les Amies Louisianaises are Janet Aguillard, Jeanette Aguillard, Lisa Aguillard and Donna Thibodeaux, four ladies from Lake Charles, Louisiana. They are taking Cajun French music in new directions in gorgeous four-part harmony. Here is what they say about their latest album, Chansons d'Inspiration (Songs of Inspiration):

These are songs of inspiration which reflect the cultural heritage of Les Amies Louisianaises. The songs we have chosen proclaim our deep love of the complex cultural gumbo of Louisiana. We are at once proudly Christian, American and Acadian/Cajun. We hope that these songs will inspire others to appreciate and love the unique legacy which our ancestors have passed down to us.

Ce sont des chansons d'inspiration qui reflètent l'héritage culturel de Les Amies Louisianaises. Les chansons que nous avons choisies proclament notre amour profond de la culture complexe et métissée de Louisiane. Nous sommes à la fois fièrement Chrétiennes, Américaines et Acadiennes/Cadiennes. Nous espérons que ces chansons inspireront d'autres à apprécier et aimer les dons uniques que nos ancêtres nous ont légués.

I enjoy singing with these ladies because they are true ladies and we are very close just as sisters. I really don't know what would have happened to me without them in my life.
