Lou Dalfin is an influential music group from the Occitania region that has played a formidable role in reviving and popularizing Occitan music. The band, founded in 1982 by Sergio Berardo, fuses traditional Occitan folk tunes with various contemporary music styles, including rock, reggae, and ska. Their music is distinct for its charismatic blend of old and modern, featuring traditional Occitan instruments such as the hurdy-gurdy (ghironda) and accordion, alongside electric guitars and drums.

Throughout their extensive career, Lou Dalfin has been steadfast in championing the Occitan language and culture through their lyrics and music, much of which is sung in the endangered Occitan language. Their albums such as "La Meison" and "I Virasolelhs" have showcased their penchant for storytelling, often touching upon themes of love, social issues, and regional pride. With 'Musica endemica', they stayed true to their roots while 'Remescla', 'Los Taxis De Barcelona', and 'L'oste del diau' reflect their willingness to experiment and reinterpret their identity. 'Gibous, Bagase e Bandì' and 'W Jan D'L'Eiretto' underscore their status as torchbearers of regional folklore, invigorating Occitan culture with each release. Lou Dalfin remains a key figure in the world of folk and world music, bridging the gap between the ancient and the contemporary.
