Alestar Digby

I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace)



Alestar Digby exemplifies powerful vocals, evocative lyrics and a larger-than-life stage-presence. Alternating between hard-driven beats and explosive guitar riffs, Alestar’s music is an exhilarating classic rock experience. The stage show is unmatched for its intensity and crowd appeal.



Alestar won Outstanding Solo Artist of the Year at the 2005 Rockies and in 2006 he was nominated for Best Male Vocalist by All Access Magazine and Outstanding Solo Artist by the Rock City News. His new self-titled release, Alestar Digby, won him Outstanding Songwriter of the Year at the 2006 Rockies. The album is comprised of new music including Looked Around The World, Your Best and Tell Me.



A prolific song writer, Alestar is lead singer and alternates between lead guitar, rhythm guitar and keyboards. The band is rounded out by first rate musicians: Dennis Phares on lead guitar and back-up vocals, Vinny Giglio on bass guitar and backing vocals and David Aaron on drums. The band’s musical influences include Led Zeppelin, The Doors, The Who and The Beatles.

Prior to Los Angeles, Alestar was the object of a sizable fan base within the live music scene of Austin, Texas, where his band Gentleman Jake and the Beat Elite achieved significant media recognition and radio play. There he successfully wrote and produced his first album, Black Spot, followed up by Et Tu Brute?.



Classically trained as well as experienced in soul, blues and funk, Alestar was a child prodigy on piano at age 6 and on the drums by age 10. Originally from New Jersey, Alestar attended the Manhattan School of Music on a talent-based scholarship, where he studied classical piano composition. He left classical music behind and began creating his distinctive style of rock and roll the day he plugged in his first electric guitar.
