"The purity and clarity of her voice and the dignity of the old songs
combined to stun the normally raucous dancing crowd
into a moment of silent reverence, followed by a rousing ovation."
- Barry Jean Ancelet - Festival Acadienne de Musique, Lafayette, LA
"La Joie Cadienne will spread joy far beyond Cajun music circles"
- Ben Sandmel - Louisiana Cultural Vistas Magazine
"Her voice cuts through the soul with the power of prayer"
- Alain A. de la Villesbret - Opelousas Daily World
"...warmth, good humor and professionalism...
beautiful vocal stylings and easy going stage and radio demeanor."
- Mark Bacon - KRVS 88.7 FM - Public Radio for Acadiana
"I love La Joie Cadienne. I had my doubts before I bought it
because I expected it to be sweet and folksy, not my cup of tea...
first time I played it I was surprised and delighted,
a really refreshing discovery."
- Cajun Life and Times Magazine -
"Many roots grow through La Joie Cadienne, and they intersect
seamlessly at a point of performance art and art preservation.
It's that good and she makes it sound so easy."
- Walter Pierce - The Daily Advertiser's Guide to the Arts
"He (BUTCH HANCOCK) was accompanied that night by another singer,
a woman called Marce Lacouture, and the moment the show started
my mood was lifted. They sounded terrific together, this pair,
and it seemed like a small miracle that two throats and one acoustic guitar
could transform the drafty pub into a place where nice things could happen."
- Nick Hornby - SONGBOOK
