Diggin' is an indie-soul band formed in Lausanne in 2020. Led by Dany Cerane (guitar) and Julien Portenguen (vocals), it works as an evolving collective of four to six musicians, notably featuring Gabriel Scheder (drums) and Simon Palluel (bass).
Influenced by Nick Hakim, Skinshape and Yellow Days, the band has developed a sonic signature that subtly blends retro influences with lo-fi modernity.
Following a series of EPs in 2023 and 2024, 2025 marked a turning point with the release of their debut album "New, Again", praised by the press. Diggin' then gained fresh exposure: named an RTS Radar artist in 2025, programmed two years running at Cully Jazz and Montreux Jazz, over 100,000 streams on the track City Knight.
The band has now released its second album "Viewpoints" and is embarking on a 2026 tour to present its new songs in a brand-new live show.
"Diggin' embodies the new generation of Swiss indie-soul: creative, bold, and ready to leave a lasting mark on the music scene."
