Corporate Entertainment - The Diamonds booking information

It's been over forty-six years since THE DIAMONDS released an instant million selling hit called Little Darlin'. The song continues to sell worldwide and to date has sold approximately 20 million copies.

"The Diamonds made an impression! You certainly know how to relate to an audience! Their gratitude was fairly obvious...judging from the standing ovations you received at both shows. Your performance made the evening memorable for our guests too. The Diamonds epitomized the great entertainment..."

Reno-Sparks Convention Center & Visitors Authority

Through the years since the release of Little Darlin' THE DIAMONDS have learned one important lesson-the durability of 1950's music is as much about the future as about the past. As a result, THE DIAMONDS continue to expand their audience to this day by performing in a myriad of surroundings, including: with Symphony Orchestras, in Performing Arts Theatres and major concert halls, on cruise ships, in casinos, at county and state fairs, on tours of England, Ireland, Brazil, Chile, Korea, and Japan, for benefit concerts and conventions, at nightclubs and, through the most recent addition to their repertoire, the Christmas show "Silver Bells And Diamonds". "We've been pleased to find a growing audience among all age groups. They like songs they can understand, remember and actually sing the words to-tomorrow, or even 20 years from now."

the diamonds booking information A major reason for THE DIAMONDS' longevity as performers and entertainers lies in the diverse backgrounds of the individual members of the group. Multi-talented tenor, Bobby Poynton, graduated from Illinois Wesleyan University in 1980 and shortly thereafter moved to Hollywood to pursue his dream of becoming an actor. He landed parts on such shows as Days of Our Lives, Jake and the Fatman, Life Goes On, Scarecrow and Mrs. King, The Sentinel, Touched by an Angel, Viper, Promised Land and Walker: Texas Ranger. Then his continuing desire to sing full time resulted in a 6-year stint as a member of The Lettermen.

"Here's what our patrons are saying:

Wow!
We had a terrific time!
We wanted to get up on the table and dance..!
We couldn't sit still!
We were all snapping our fingers and tapping our feet!"

Bass singer Jerry Siggins has accumulated some impressive credits of his own. Jerry has worked throughout the United States, Japan, and Australia as a singer and actor. He spent five summers at Jackson Hole's Pink Garter Theater and has guest starred on The Tonight Show, Tony Orlando and Dawn, and The Love Boat. Before setting down roots as a permanent member of THE DIAMONDS in 1991, Jerry enjoyed a successful career as an actor in television commercials and was actively involved in Southern California theatre. He sang in a doo-wop group called Danny and The Dappers and was a mainstay at Disneyland and Disney World as a vocalist with The Dapper Dans vocal quartet for years.

"I just wanted to let you know that The Diamonds did a wonderful job tonight. They were so energetic and they sound so great together. A large part of our audience said it was our best concert ever. Their energy level at the beginning of the concert and the end of the concert was so strong. They held the audience's attention. They have great charisma. I would recommend The Diamonds to anyone that enjoys good music, a fun filled energetic evening, and great entertainment."

The newest addition to The Diamonds is lead singer Joe Finetti. Joe began his singing career in college while studying trombone and drums at Gonzaga University in Spokane, Washington. He sang with a jazz vocal group known as Phil Mattson & The P.M. Singers, a group that was up for two Grammy Awards in 1985. He also began singing on radio and TV jingles for a local producer. He soon began writing jingles and landed a job as a jingle writer in Indianapolis. Joe’s other credits include a brief stint with Bobby McFerrin’s Voicestra , followed by 14 years in another Grammy-nominated group, The Bobs. Here he wrote, arranged and produced 6 albums, numerous TV and radio recordings before joining The Diamonds in June of 2003.

A well-rounded musician, Owens learned his craft as a journeyman bass player around Los Angeles while earning his undergraduate degree in music at California State University, Long Beach. In the early 1980's, Owens took a brief hiatus from THE DIAMONDS to complete his Master's Degree in Business Administration at the University of Southern California. Besides singing, and playing saxophone and flute, Owens does much of the vocal arranging for THE DIAMONDS. In that capacity, he is well aware of the group's particular effectiveness. "Although the faces have changed over the years our goal has always been to keep that classic Diamonds' sound in tact. THE DIAMONDS are four distinctive individuals," he notes, "with one strong group personality. The four of us as a unit have a special chemistry, and it is that chemistry that gives us our unique identity."
