Popular Music Group

Affectionately known as "Old George", our Popular Music Group (PMG) embodies a wide American spectrum of popular music. Led by a Marine Vocalist, their music styles range from pop, funk, and rock to country and R&B. Their high energy show features original songs and arrangements brought to life by the musicians of the Blue Diamond. The PMG is used at venues that benefit from loud music and best suits community outreach, volunteer events, and family/unit functions. Music amplification is required and can be provided by the Blue Diamond Sound team for audiences of up to 500, and can even operate on battery power for a single set.

Jazz Combo

Old Breed Brass Band

The Jazz Combo, as an expeditionary version of the Popular Music Group, is ideal for more constrained performances of popular music. Comprised of virtuosic soloists and a rhythm section that takes no prisoners, the group excels at modern and contemporary jazz, funk, and latin music as well as “underground” interpretations of popular songs. They are employed as a feature group for community and educational events, and for crafting an environment of sophistication and professionalism at Commanding General’s social events.
