Lonely Star

by Digbii

Our debut album was recorded between January and March of 2017. We had solidified the line-up with Ryan over the previous several months and felt it was time to get some of the music recorded. The tracks are a mix of things we had been playing for a while and tunes written in the month before recording started. We are proud of the effort and happy to have these moments captured in recordings that we can share.

A special note about G-Man - This tune is dedicated to Keith who continues to fight the good fight.

Recorded at Tanner-Monagle Studios

Engineered, mixed and mastered by Ric Probst

Live in Glendale

by Digbii

Recorded live at Glendale Days in Glendale, WI on July 4th, 2017. We were a late fill-in for another band that dropped out of the line-up so this show became the first in a week of five shows in seven days. We were pretty excited to play and that comes through in the energy. We were also debuting a couple tunes and still learning how we were going to play them (you can tell). Overall, this was one of our favorite shows of last summer because the crowd was great, the sound was great and energy was great.

Recorded, mixed and mastered by Dave McCullough
