About Me

". . . i can kind of envision maybe one person w/ alot of machines, tapes, electronic set-ups singing or speaking and using machines. . ."
-Jim Morrison (the Doors) 1969-
:::L U D W Y G:::
Ludwyg originated as a 2-piece band & eventually we added other members- guitarists, bass, synth & over a year's worth of time ended up back where we began as a duo- which for us seems to work the best. After only 3 months of rehearsals we started playing out & by our 10th show opening for VNV Nation.
We (myself & john) share alot of the same influences musically & although punk may be the majority of our roots- the music that we generate comes out as electronica w/ a darkwave vibe to it.
Constantly writing & evolving our sound we hope the audience can find a place within the dementia of what we do. . . feel free 2 overindulge.
-Billy-
