We are completely devastated by the recent tragedy in our hometown of Lafayette, LA. One of the two victims that was fatally shot was a very dear friend and collaborator of Feufollet. Jillian Johnson designed the art and packaging for our 2008 album Cow Island Hop and took many photos for the band. Our friend, musician, songwriter and journalist Christiaan Mader wrote this nice piece about Jillian and the situation in Lafayette. R.I.P. Jillian and Mayci Breaux.
