FOOD 4 YOUR HEAD

About Me


The Diggity is a 5 piece Progressive Funk jam band, carrying a sound like no one else on earth. The Diggity will captivate your mind with their creative song writing, unique instrumentals, and their mind altering twisted creation of funk, born in late 2001, The Diggity started out as an alternative rock band. A year later they made the transition to jam friendly music pulling influences from bands such as (but not limited to) Widespread Panic, Umphreys McGee, Phish, Grateful Dead, the Allman Brothers Band, LLAMA, and The New Mastersounds. In 2006, the band decided to light it up, and move from just playing local coffee shops, to playing all over Indiana, and in 2007 the band took on the challenge of recording an album, which was released in April. The Diggity will also be appearing all over the Mid-West this year, so watch our calender for a show near you.
