   About Diego

Combine evocative lyrics with hypnotic harmonies and you have Diego. Described by Bristol's Venue magazine as “...a post-Coldsailorpatrol slice of twinkly, keening melodic indie-rock”, Diego have truly captivated audiences around the South West with their truly original and spell-binding music.


Hailing from the humble beginnings of Bristol's eclectic open mic scene, Diego have evolved into a richer, rockier and intensely sensorial sounding five-piece hotly tipped to be the ones to watch:


"...judging from these early signs, Diego has the potential for great things. Make a note of the name and keep your eye on them for the future."
- Louder Than The Music.com (read full EP review here)


In April 2010 the track 'Another Place' from their debut Surrendered EP reached number one in The Official Unsigned Chart Show with Junior Saunders – the forefront of new talent in the region. The summer of 2010 will see the release of their eagerly anticipated follow-up Escape EP coupled with a UK tour.


“My personal favourite indie band of all time and I genuinely mean that... if you have a passion for indie music, check these guys out live - they are absolutely incredible.”
- Junior Saunders on Ujima Radio (now on BCfm 93.2)


"Spacious, shimmering, anthemic rock... stately, wide-eyed pop that never loses sight of a tune in its quest for the epic... Music to watch planets to." 4/5 stars
- Venue magazine (read full EP review by Steve Wright)


"Their original songwriting and exceptional musicianship make them stand out from the crowd of new bands on the block"
- Scrumpy 'n' Western magazine

Hi guys.
yeah, great news about the voting. Can't believe we're top!
We are promoting it a lot and probably annoying our friends on Facebook!!
We've been watching your progress and it's great to see you climbing the charts - almost in the play-offs! Keep pushing We recommend Facebook - email people directly; use the guilt trip to get them to vote
Looking forward to the 13th, should be a cracking night.
