THE DIPLOMATS are a local Peterborough band found deep in the heart of Hunter St., not to be confused with foreign dignitaries nor national ambassadors.

THE DIPLOMATS are Patrick Walsh, Ian Osborn and Jill Stavely, an unlikely yet perfect trio for this band and this music. The Diplomats are a hard edge blues trio who perform original and cover material in and around Peterborough. Having previously released live recordings with a couple of different line-ups, 'RUE OF THE DAY'is the bands first studio style product. Though the Diplomats definitely thrive during a live performance, the studio method of 'RUE OF THE DAY' does not inhibit a realistic representation of the sounds one would inevitably hear at a Diplomats show. In the past little while The Diplomats have decided to part ways after six years to carry on different independent projects. GOOD LUCK TO YOU ALL!

Their music is still available and if you would like a copy, contact: ossongs@hotmail.com
