ABOUT DIZGO

Born from attic jam sessions between childhood friends Andrew Pickel and Kevin Hinnefeld, Dizgo’s story began with two guitars, a tape recorder, and a dream - literally. The band’s name came to Hinnefeld in a dream, before their first gig, reflecting the cosmic, boundary-breaking sound they’d soon deliver. Later joined by Jake Evatt on keys/vocals and Justin Clark on drums, the Bloomington-based quartet has since evolved into one of the country's premiere touring acts.

Critics have called Dizgo β€œone of the most operative names in the jam band scene” and β€œIndiana’s psychedelic powerhouse,” blending the adventurous spirit of jamtronica with the deep-pocket pulse of funk, the warmth of soul, explosive guitar, and the kaleidoscopic textures of psychedelic rock. Their live shows are immersive journeys - a dance party and mind-trip rolled into one. Interweaving soulful vocals, analog synths, and searing guitar complete with intricate compositions and extended improvisation. The result is something both danceable and introspective: a dance floor where heads and hearts move in equal measure.

Dizgo’s touring resume reads like a true music lover’s bucket list - standout sets at Jam Cruise, Summer Camp, Secret Dreams, Domefest & High Sierra, alongside club & amphitheater performances along with Goose, George Clinton & Parliament Funkadelic, Pigeons Playing Ping Pong, lespecial, Dogs in a Pile, and more. Their 2024 studio album β€œMelt” crystallized their ethos: when everything locks in, the band and the fans β€œmelt into one collective unit,” channeling energy between themselves and the crowd in a feedback loop of groove.

From your local venue to the biggest festival stage, Dizgo creates a communal experience - one where genre is merely a suggestion, the band and the fans are a living organism, and every note is a step further down the rabbit hole.
