You may be asking yourself “Who the fuck are Digger & The Pussycats?”…well we’re two blokes from Australia who’ve been playing playing garage-trash rock’n’roll since we got together at the start of 2003.
We are guitarist Sam Agostino, the guy who looks like Pete Sampras after a three-week champagne and pills party, and drummer Andy Moore, who can be recognised as the Ronald McDonald on crack look-alike.
The band started as a bit of a joke, a way to pass time after our previous band Fort Mary split up, and to allow us to continue playing shows around our home city Melbourne while we searched for a bass player in our new band the Kamikaze Trio. We had shitloads of fun, and people seemed to like our songs, so we recorded an album “Young, Tight and Alright” for Melbourne’s hottest label, Spooky Records and the rest is history
In 2004 we completed our first European tour, just the two of us with our instruments and a hatchback, gallivanting throughout Germany, France, Spain, Holland, Belgium, Austria and the UK for 9 weeks. This year, we’re coming back to visit even more countries with tours planned through Scandinavia, parts of eastern Europe, Switzerland and Sam’s parents homeland, Italy.
So keep your eye on the gigs page, because we’ll be coming to a city near you. come down for a beer, we’ll talk about our favourite records and hopefully we’ll put on one of the most fucked-up live shows you’ll ever see. Alternatively, write to us here.
