Mardi Gras weekend in Lafayette,
Louisiana. Revelers are lining Johnston Street in
anticipation of a Friday night parade, one of a number of
festive marches leading up to the all-day frenzy of Fat
Tuesday. In a modest frame house in a nearby
neighborhood, 26-year-old Millsaps graduate R. Reese
Fuller pulls out his diatonic accordion as he and his
brother Shamus (fiddle) and Shamus wife Courtney
(guitar) gear up for the celebration with an
old-fashioned Cajun jam session. Listening to their
traditional music, few would peg Reese and Shamus as
pioneers in cyberspace. But their Internet start-up,
found at www.louisianaradio.com, is the first audio
broadcasting outlet to be programmed exclusively for the
web. PREVIOUS ARTICLE | PAGE 1 OF 4 | NEXT PAGE |
