Doug Kershaw is so Cajun that he didn’t even learn to speak English until he was three. It wouldn’t matter if he ever did pick up the language, however, since the Cameron Parish product is easily one of Cajun music’s bonafide stars.

Doug Kershaw w/Jo-El Sonnier/The Cadillac Cowboys. Fri. Sept. 13, 8 p.m. $25-$30. Skipper’s Smokehouse, Tampa. skipperssmokehouse.com.
