Traditional Cajun music from New Orleans.
Born and raised in a suburb of New Orleans, Cameron became infatuated with the sounds of Cajun music at an early age, which is appropriate being the son of Cajun musician, Michael Dupuy. His father often took him to gigs where Cameron would always be on stage strumming a guitar, banging on spoons, or any thing he could get his hands on. As a result of Hurricane Katrina, Cameron was exposed to Cajun music a little more after evacuating to Lafayette, LA. On the last day of the evacuation, Cameron finally convinced "Mr. Rick", who let the Dupuys stay at his house for the storm, to let him play the accordion sitting on the shelf. Mr. Rick was not eager, since the accordion was used to record a Grammy winning album by Jimmy Breaux, but he decided to let him play it. He was instantly hooked on the accordion.
Following his return to New Orleans, he received his first guitar for Christmas. It was his constant hearing of Cajun music that made him want to get his father's accordion repaired that had been broken for the past few years. After spending several years as a guitarist, Cameron Dupuy started playing the Cajun accordion at the age of eleven. A breakout performance at The Liberty Theatre in April of 2010 led to a standing ovation, which earned Cameron and his band "The Cajun Troubadours" an invitation to play at Festival Acadiens et Creoles by Dr. Barry Ancelet.
