Diggin Dirt: Pumpin’ Out Body Heat on the Road

After Jam Cruise in February, I was ready to explode preparing the article I wrote about Diggin Dirt, a band brandnew to me. These gents were so spectacular that I will suggest you read the article here first.

Diggin Dirt not only claim to play funk/rock/reggae groove music created behind the redwood curtain in Humboldt County, CA, but they deliver in mass quantities. I have not been this excited about a band in ages.

Diggin Dirt are: Zach Alder – vocals, Rory Urquhart – guitar, Zach Gutierrez – guitar, Eric Dobko – bass, Joey Incorvaia – drums, Aaron Gottesman – tenor sax, and Tyler Martin – baritone sax.

The septet plays Rendezvous In The Park tonight (July 19) in Moscow, Idaho, and Saturday at the Winthrop Blues Festival in Winthrop, Washington. In two weeks they will rock Rhythms on the Rio Music Festival, and the Californians travel to Alaska! for a pair of shows at Creekbend Cafe.
