Jerry was a successful trombone player in various groups around St. Louis (The Period, Jay Barry, The American Dream) since the late 60s and early 70s. In 1972, he left music behind to start a business and family  with his wife Lorrie, but of course you never get music out of your system, so in 2014, he decided to return to playing, with the guitar as his instrument of choice. He and a friend traveled as an acoustic duo playing guitar, bass and singing harmonies. A short time later he decided to play bass exclusively,  and became the Blue Diamonds bassist in 2019.

Steve has been with The Blue Diamonds since spring of 2019. He is a world-class guitarist who has toured with artists such as Reba McEntire and Hootie and the Blowfish. Well versed in multiple genres and instruments, he is a St Louis high band director, and enjoys spending time with his wife Nancy, his grandchildren, and his time in the air. That's right folks, he's also licensed pilot!!! Truly a man of many talents!

Marty joined the Blue Diamonds in October of 2019. A founding member of the Central Illinois band "Crossborn" and the owner of Rock University, the Blue Diamonds have been blessed with his extensive knowledge of rock and blues!  Marty and his wife, Beth, reside in and are both teachers in central Illinois. When not teaching English or guitar (he is Skylar's former guitar instructor), he enjoys crappie fishing and spending time with his children and two dogs.
