Graham Wiggins (b. New York, 1962) is an American musician. He plays the
didgeridoo, keyboards, melodica, sampler, and various percussion
instruments with his group, the Boston, Massachusetts-based Dr. Didg. He
holds a D.Phil in solid-state physics from Oxford University, where he
earned his nickname while testing his didgeridoo in the Clarendon physics
laboratory.
Wiggins was born in New York to British parents from Abingdon,
Oxfordshire, and grew up in New York. Although his first instruments were
piano and horn, he first taught himself to play the didgeridoo while a
physics student at Boston University in 1982, after hearing Warren Senders
demonstrating a cardboard-tube didgeridoo as part of a "world music"
concert series in Boston.[LINK:
