History[]
Background[]
This band of animals had formed by 1927. On the February 27th of 1927, the band was found by Princess Tiana and Louis the Alligator during their hunt for musicians. The two recruited the critters to join the Bayou Community Band, and performed with said band at Tiana's party in Fleur du Bayou. During this performance, Byhalia used her tail to play on the centre drum on a drum-set for the Bayou Community Band, being played by Prince Ralphie of Maldonia.
The Bayou Community Band would go on the play nightly at "Critter Co-op" in the bayou. Zydeco Rainbow was also listed as performing here.
