Bayou Ruler is an album by the American band Steve Riley and the Mamou Playboys, released in 1998. A couple of its English-language songs were regional hits, although they proved controversial to some Cajun traditionalists. The band supported the album with a North American tour. "Let Me Know" was promoted to radio stations all over the United States, a rarity for a Cajun single.
