   About the daniel iorio group

BIO

D.I.G are a four member outfit consisting of some of Montreal's top live & session musicians, joining forces with indie singer/songwriter Daniel Iorio.

Their first CD together, "Hike", is a self-produced effort boasting 12 melodious tracks, chronicalling, rather whimsically, the trials and tribulations many artists endure to do what they love. Coupled with some themes touching on Buddhist tenets, existentialism, death, self-doubt, fear, metaphysics, realization & awareness, "Hike" manages to present itself as unassuming and without presumption.

"The record created itself" utters Iorio. "I had just come out of a 3 year indie deal that bore no fruit...Dan(Legault) opened a small project studio and, knowing what had happened with my deal, invited me over to bang off a few tracks for fun. The next thing you know, we have 20 tracks in the can, and an album we've always wanted to make. It kind of crept up and bit us in the arse." admits the Montreal singer/songwriter, who also co-produced the effort with Legault.

"Hike" is slated for an August 2008 release.

************************************************

D.I.G est un ensemble de quatre membres comprenant quelques-uns des meilleurs musiciens de session de Montréal joignant leurs forces avec chanteur/compositeur Daniel Iorio.

Leur premier CD, "Hike", est un ouvrage auto-produit comportant 12 pièces mélodieuses, documentant, de manière plutôt insouciante, les épreuves et tribulations auxquelles plusieurs artistes ont à faire face afin de faire ce qu'ils aiment. Arborant certains thèmes traitant de psaumes Bouddhistes, d'existentialisme, de mort, de doute, de peur, de métaphysique, de réalisation de soi et de prise de conscience, "Hike", arrive à se présenter sans prétention.

"L'album s'est créé de lui-même" dit Iorio. "Je sortais d'un contrat indépendant de 3 ans qui n'a pas porté fruit... Dan (Legault) venait d'ouvrir un petit studio maison et, sachant ce qui était arrivé avec mon contrat, m'a invité à venir enregistrer quelques pièces pour le plaisir. La première chose qu'on a su, nous avions 20 pièces de complétées et l'album que nous avions toujours voulu faire. Il est arrivé et nous a surpris par derrière." admet l'auteur-compositeur montréalais qui a co-réalisé le tout avec Legault.

La sortie de "Hike" est prévue pour aout 2008.
