Digney’s big break came when he won the MTV basement tapes with his hit song and video “The Girl with the Curious Hand.” This led to a release on Columbia Records that Digney co-produced with Leroy Radcliffe. Digney’s latest CD, Last Planet on the Left, received national and international airplay spending a month in the TOP 40 on the National Americana Chart and reaching #6 on the International Roots/Rock Chart. Digney won the WZLX Boston Anthem contest with his song “Boston Town.” The song is featured on the CD Boston Town which was nominated for Record of the Year by the Mass Country Music Awards Association.

His CDs Trouble on the Levee and Talk of the Town each scored high on NPR, Americana, Roots Rock, and College Charts.  Digney’s song “Party Down in Hell” was featured on Jerry Bruckheimer’s show “Eleventh Hour” on CBS.  His song “Gumbo” was used on NBC’s Today Show, and “Boudreaux” was runner-up for Best Americana Song by the Just Plain Folks Awards.
