DIKKI DU & THE ZYDECO CREW
|
One of the spiciest zydeco bands in America, Dikki Du & the Zydeco Crew will turn any event into a full-fledged Mardi Gras.
Bandleader Dikki Du (Troy Carrier) was born to play zydeco. Son of the world-famous accordionist Roy Carrier, brother of world-famous drummer Chubby Carrier, Troy played the washboard with his family's band and the great C.J. Chenier on tours around the world.
After learning the accordion, Troy created his own band to play originals and zydeco-flavored versions of party staples like "Mustang Sally" and "Fire." The band's funky instrumentals, searing guitar, syncopated rhythms, and intricate accordion work push the frontiers of zydeco and have made them one of the most popular festival and party bands in the region.
"Troy exhibits that Carrier touch with jumping riffs, pounding stops, and
constant jukin' that bounces all over the map. Guitarist Bobby Jackson adds some
quasi-psychedelic licks while Gilbeau raps the traps like a rapid-fire machine
gun. Carrier learned his button box well with plenty of tricky dicky (no pun
intended) dazzling, which is the catalyst for making the arrangements hop." - music critic Dan Willging
