Tony Rice (born David Anthony Rice, June 8, 1951, Danville, Virginia, United States) is an American guitarist and bluegrass musician. He is considered one of the most influential acoustic guitar players in bluegrass, progressive bluegrass, newgrass and acoustic jazz. He was inducted into the International Bluegrass Music Hall of Fame in 2013.
Rice's music spans the range of acoustic from traditional bluegrass to jazz-influenced New Acoustic music to songwriter-oriented folk. Over the course of his career, he has played alongside J. D. Crowe and the New South, David Grisman (during the formation of "Dawg Music") and Jerry Garcia, led his own Tony Rice Unit, collaborated with Norman Blake, recorded with his brothers Wyatt, Ron, and Larry, and co-founded the Bluegrass Album Band. He has recorded with drums, piano, soprano sax, as well as with traditional bluegrass instrumentation.
Early years
Rice was born in Danville, Virginia but grew up in Los Angeles, California, where his father, Herb Rice, introduced him to bluegrass. Tony and his brothers learned the fundamentals of bluegrass and country music from L.A. musicians like the Kentucky Colonels, led by Roland and Clarence White. Clarence White in particular became a huge influence on Rice. Crossing paths with fellow enthusiasts like Ry Cooder, Herb Pedersen and Chris Hillman reinforced the strength of the music he had learned from his father.
Tony Rice (American football)
Tony Rice (born September 5, 1967) is a former professional American football player, playing quarterback in the Canadian Football League and World League of American Football. Rice is perhaps best remembered as the dynamic option quarterback of the University of Notre Dame's 1988 National Championship Team under coach Lou Holtz. Rice would play professional football for only three seasons for the Canadian Football League's Saskatchewan Roughriders and the Barcelona Dragons of the World League of American Football from 1990 to 1992. He also played for Munich Thunder in the FLE (Football League of Europe) in 1994.
Recruitment and Proposition 48
While growing up in Woodruff, South Carolina, Rice played high school football for Woodruff High School under Coach Willie Varner. Rice entered Notre Dame in 1986 and was the crown jewel in Holtz's first recruiting class. These incoming freshmen were also the first to be bound by the NCAA rules of Proposition 48, which stated that in order to participate during his (or her) freshman year, an athlete must (1) be a high school graduate; (2) have a high school grade point average of 2.0 in an 11-course core curriculum; and (3) have scored 700 (out of a possible 1600) on the SAT or 17 (out of a possible 36) on the ACT. If he (or she) failed to meet those standards, the athlete would not be allowed to play or practice with a college team his (or her) freshman year. Because Rice failed to meet the required 700 on his SAT (he scored a 690), he was forced to sit out the entire 1986 season. Even with future NFL quarterback Steve Beuerlein leading the offense, the team struggled to a 5-6 record.

Night Flyer: The Singer Songwriter Collection
by: Tony RiceHe rode all the way to Texas on an old freight train
He didn't miss the girl he left behind
He rode all the way to Texas, didn't shed a tear
He's letting you know that he's the moving kind
A light shines from my window
I just can't sleep no more
Oh Lord, it hurts so much to be alone
But the real men never do admit
That it's them that might be wrong
At least that's what he told me in his song
He rode all the way to Texas on an old freight train
He didn't miss the girl he left behind
He rode all the way to Texas, he didn't shed a tear
He's letting you know that he's the moving kind
The freedom that he sings about
Well, I guess I'll never know
I just can't shake the guilt or kill the pain
But it helps to ride when the lights turn low
I'll get on board the radio
And take a ride out to Texas on his train
He rode all the way to Texas on an old freight train
He didn't miss the girl he left behind
He rode all the way to Texas, he didn't shed a tear
He's letting you know that he's the moving kind
Yes, he's letting you know that he's the moving kind
