Dirty Rice is:

Chip Taylor Smith guitar
Danny Gardella violin

Dirty Rice has been throwin' down the zydeco music in the Northeast since 1995. We've played for dances and festivals, at benefits and fairs, in bars, museums and barns, in colleges and house parties. The individual members are well seasoned in cajun and zydeco music, having performed with many other bands before coming together as Dirty Rice. Dirty Rice has appeared at a number of festivals including the Dance Flurry in Saratoga, NY, the Stanfordville Cajun Festival and the Big Easy in Escoheag, RI as well as Ashokan dance camp.
