Digamy

Just the sound of the name raises questions. Who (or what) is Digamy?
Since their "Listen To Digamy" sticker began popping up in 2007, the band has emerged into the underground NYC scene. Digamy is far from your typical punk rock band. They're sound revolves around a foundation of noise rock and american punk rock. The music is cultural and free formed and has a distinct uniqueness to it. Digamy has doven into their own aura, causing their music to be just as impactful as hearing their name for the first time.

David Guevara, the bands guitarist and singer says "Digamy has been a band that has seen its fair share of line ups, but what the pleasure i take is in knowing that each person i have played with over the years, has left their own distinct flavor to it. You can say Digamy is the band EVERYONE has been in. And everyone is welcome to listen to."

since starting the band back in 2005, David, has taken the role as the driving force of the band, recording the 5 track "A Shape Named SayTen" demo which is credit to the bands "local buzz".

In 2008, Vlad Berlin, Digamy's bassist joined the band. Originally being a fan of the music, it only seemed like the proper step to take to see his favorite local band succeed. Vlad also takes part of Digamy's songwriting contributing one of their more preffered songs "Vlad's Song" which will be making an appearance on Digamy's next studio album coming out 2009.

Also in 2008, David's longtime friend Elijah Catrone joined the band as their drummer. Elijah and David attended the same schools and over the years shared experienced both musical and influential to their lives and the paths they take. Elijah and David are currently attempting to establish they're ongoing project "Astoria Music". A indie based procution company from Astoria New York. When asked where they idea came about David and Elijah had this to say "Astoria has a alot of dreams, we feel it's our jobs to get them out of their heads and into real life. Leaving not one dream behind in hopes of creating a more coloful world."

Digamy is currenlty a leading force in the local scene, playing Manhattan's clubs and venues frequently. They are currently preparing for a battle of the bands this dec. 7th. for a chance to win a chance to record and work with some of the music industries more established and experienced people. The band member however say that it is not just for the money or the 15 minutes of fame. "Digamy represents what we beleive in ourselves, in no way do we really want to win money or a free trip to who knows where. We are only being real about it. If it's helping us get out there we will do it. No questions asked. It's our better judgment that keeps us on top. And it's going to be our good desicions that get us where we want. No matter what, there is not enough money that will make us get lost in the crowd, not when we can stand above it."
