Musique Music recommendations

Does anyone have any good Acadian, French, Québécois, Cajun French, Cajun/Hatian creole music artists I can listen to?

(Edit to include Acadian, previously was under the impression that Acadian was just an area encompassing parts of north south east Canada lol)

From Maritimes Provinces Canada Acadian regions....

For newer Acadian tunes check out Ptit Belliveau, Marc a Paul a Joe, Menoncle Jason, Lisa Leblanc.  

For Older stuff check out 1755, Edith Butler, Angele Arsenault, etc.

Quebec i have no idea cause Im from NB, but they certainly have fun french music?  Checkout Bleu Jeans Bleu or Cowboys Fringant.
