DigHayZoose
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
DigHayZoose was a Christian funk/Modern rock band from Kansas City, Missouri. They were founded in the early 1990s and signed to Brainstorm Artists International in 1991. Following their first album, StruggleFish, they toured nationally with bands such as Scaterd Few and played festivals including the Cornerstone Festival. Their second album, MagentaMantaLoveTree is considered more emotional than their first. They were known for fusing rock and freestyle jazz, as in the songs "Black-Eyed Pea" and "Secret."
They also covered Steve Taylor's "I Want To Be A Clone" for the 1994 tribute I Predict A Clone. In later concerts, Taylor's version came to resemble DigHayZoose's more than his own. (1) (2)
They announced their breakup at Cornerstone 1994, at the same time Ascension 7: Rocketship to Heaven, their final release, was recorded. Ascension 7 includes guests Dan Michaels of The Choir and Allan Aguirre of Scaterd Few.
