Bio
Diggsville began as a musical entity while contributing to the soundtrack of the independent film, "In the Wake" by Erica Jordan. After cruising the festival circuit, percussionist Randy Odell and vocalist Karen Mitchell enlisted the piano skills of David von Holder. His rich synth textures and poignant melodic sensibilities provided the perfect complement to Randy's timely grooves, both coming from a strong jazz and R&B background. Bassist David Hermocillo's ability to drive it to the ground and saxophonist Nadine Whitfield's subtle soul added to Karen's evocative lyrics and haunting vocals for an extraordinary sound, that includes elements of triphop, electronica, latin funk and jazz.
The band has aroused San Francisco, North & East Bay crowds in local clubs, stirred it up at the infamous Nadine's Wild Weekend and lit it up on local college and internet radio stations. Now celebrating the birth of their freshman CD, Songs from Nowhere, co-produced by Garth May of Fuzz Productions, Diggsville is satiating music junkies everywhere with substantially captivating grooves.
Due to the departure of Ms. Whitfield after the completion of Songs from Nowhere, the group recruited Jody Ono in 2004 to provide saxophones and EWI (Electric Wind Instrument) synth layers for Diggsville's infectious mix.
