Poor Man's Fortune

Bayou Curious

Poor Man's Fortune continues their obsession with the traditional music of Brittany, but this time with some local flavor. Produced by Jean-Michel Veillon, Bayou Curious combines Breton, Scottish, French & original music with a large dose of Cajun & Creole spice. Add to the mix two of the best fiddlers in the business, Cajun favorite and Grammy-Award winner Michael Doucet and legendary Scottish fiddler Brian McNeill

"... the best interpretation of Breton music I've heard from American musicians."

Lois Kuter - Bro Nevez #103 - August 2007

"Poor Man's Fortune has once again shown why it is perhaps the most innovative and interesting traditional band in the US. This band has achieved something special in their new CD, In Good Time."

Bill Galbraith, KPFT, FM 90.1, Houston Public Radio, June, 2007

"In Good Time's 10 tracks are gold..., expertly recorded and energetically performed."

David Lynch, Austin Chronicle, July, 2007
