Wilson Savoy was born in Eunice and began his musical career in 2000 with the Savoy Family Band ( consisting of his father Marc , mother Ann , and brother Joel Savoy ) . Since 2000 he has also operated Almena Pictures , a film company specializing in band documentaries and music videos . In 2004 he joined the Red Stick Ramblers from Baton Rouge , Louisiana and in 2005 formed his own band , the Pine Leaf Boys . In 2006 he and his brother Joel ( a fiddle player , cofounder of Valcour Records and also a former member of the Red Stick Ramblers ) were instrumental in starting the annual Faquetigue Courir de Mardi Gras as an alternative to the main Eunice event . They felt that the other local runs had gotten too rowdy and lost too much of their authentic traditions . The run has become one of the most musically based on the various versions of the courir . Also in 2006 he recorded a collection of 1930 's era songs and classic Cajun Swing music with fellow traditional Cajun act the Lost Bayou Ramblers titled '' Mello Joy Boys : Une Tasse Cafe '' . In 2008 the Pine Leaf Boys were nominated for a Grammy Award for their 2007 album '' Blues de Musicien '' , released on Arhoolie Records . Fellow nominees that year were Geno Delafose , Roddie Romero , Lost Bayou Ramblers , the Racines and the winner of the Grammy Terrance Simien and the Zydeco Experience . In 2010 and 2011 , Savoy appeared as himself in three episodes of the HBO series '' Treme '' . In 2013 the eponymous debut album of The Band Courtbouillion , featuring Savoy , Steve Riley and Wayne Toups won the Grammy Award in the Best Regional Roots Music Album category
