Breaux Brothers

[2] Amédé Breaux was born on September 1, 1900, north of Rayne, Louisiana, near a community called Roberts Cove.

His father, Auguste Breaux, was a well-known accordionist, and his mother played mouth harp.

[3] When his brothers, Ophey and Clifford, and his sister, Cléoma Breaux Falcon, were old enough they played music together.

Much of this work would be versions of popular country or swing tunes and they would be listed in multiple combinations of their names, sometimes with or without all the members.

During that session, Clifford would go on to record "Continuer De Sonner" which is an early version of the song "Keep A-Knockin' popularized in 1957 by Little Richard.
