DarryL & Kim

“  Platinum is one of R&B's music's most beloved and consistently popular vocal groups. Platinum was formed in 2000 by lead vocalist Darryl Askew, his friends Carlo Valotta and Mike Oleary from another local singing group soon joined the group. Platinum performed in a lot of the local clubs in the Pittsburgh and surrounding areas. Prior to joining with Platinum, Mike had also played in the band called the New Memories along with Darryl. Platinum has gone thru several female vocalists along the way to counterpart with Darryl, but it wasn’t until 2002 when Kim joined the band. That’s when things really started to click -- almost like magic. Kim had such a dynamic voice, stage presence, charisma, and the sweetest personality you ever want to meet! Darryl and Kim gelled instantly, the band now had a sound chemistry, their vocal style harkens back to a more genteel era of crooning with their silky smooth voices but yet they can grove and move an audience. As their popularity continues to grow, Platinum has a great appreciation for their loyal fans, and of course they always welcome new ones. Audiences are hungry for great songs with timeless melodies, and you can expect great songs and a stellar performance from this great band…PLATINUM.”
