Biographical History

Joe Falcon was born in Roberts Cove, Louisiana and began playing accordion at the age of seven. His career as a professional musician began some years later in Rayne, Louisiana when the regular band didn't show up and the dance hall owner insisted that Joe take their place. He played in with accordionist Amédée Breaux. Amédée's sister, Cléoma, a gifted guitarist and singer, became Joe's frequent accompanist and they married not long after the onset of their recording career.
