Idiginis has consistently been one of the top Reggae bands in Texas by continuing to make and perform the hottest original reggae music for over 10 years. In 2009 the band released their self titled EP, Idiginis, which gave the band an impressive start. Then in March of 2013 the band released Suspended Animation which was the band's first attempt at a full album.
