Dwayne and The Zydeco Hellraisers are currently in the studio recording songs for their 5th album, a follow up to Up In Flames, which was their second album to be prenominated for a Grammy Award. The Louisiana native writes both the lyrics and music for his songs and describes the upcoming album as soulful with a touch of blues and old time zydeco feel.
