What would you classify Johnny Rebel as? I really like the style of his music and would like to get more into it. I've read it's Cajun, but I've tried other Cajun that isn't put together as well.  What are some other bands with that easy going upbeat sound? Country. But he does Cajun songs too, being that he is a genuine ragin' Cajun and all:clink But alot of Country singers have done Cajun songs. Like Hank Williams' Jambalaya(on the bayou), Johnny Paycheck did Cajun Country which is a great song. Country is more of an umbrella term for marketing convenience than a real genre anyways, there are lots of different styles that are classified under the Country/Country and Western category. Cajun music is usually marketed under the Country music category.     As for other people with that sort of style. You won't be hearing much of that style in the mainstream today, mainstream just wants bubblegum cookie cutter pop music now, not real down home Country and Cajun music. But you would probably like the old classic Country and Western music and Cajun music then. Look into some old school Country and Cajun music. Lots of good ones out there.
