Dig Nitty Records was founded in Brooklyn, NYC in 2005 by Chris Clark, after witnessing the decline of the major and indie labels first hand. In this 'do-it-yourself' age of ever evolving technology, and vast marketing outlets, there is no longer a need for artists to seek the support of a major label. Chris foresaw where the music industry was heading, and decided it was time to embrace truly independent artists who were making a name for themselves. With a minimal budget, and a lot of hard work, Dig Nitty Records now has a roster of visionary artists worldwide. Slim Francis: Brooklyn based Slim Francis is led by Aric Carroll, an extraordinary songwriter and vocalist, whose eclectic guitar stylings and soulful vocals tell haunting tales of life and love in the big city. Bobbie Peru: Manchester based Bobbie Peru cook up a particularly demented stew with their ever-changing musical palette, which is an unpredictable mix of stabbing guitars, social commentary and a rhythm section coming through like a freight train. James Catholic: It is with sincere purpose that extremes flourish in Mr. Catholic's muse; and drama arrives in the form of distinct vocal characters under the restrictions of elementary modern form. After all, its dramatic range that attracts Mr. Catholic to the Matt Johnsons (The The), Peter Murphys, Stooges, and Pixies of the world.
