Code: Blue

Code: Blue is a homegrown 8-piece roots blues/soul/R&B band whose members – Jerry Zolten, Richard Sleigh, Terri Parker, Rene Oakman, John Raiser, Chris Younken, Harry Werner, and Barb Neumuller – have a long and distinguished track record of making music, each in his or her own right and in various combinations making an indelible mark on the regional music scene.

Code: Blue made their first local splash in 1993 with Stages/Then and Now, an album that showcased the band’s exceptional musicianship and originality. In the wake of that release, their fanbase exploded and doors opened to engagements statewide. Code: Blue would tour the entire Penn State Commonwealth Campus system, share stages with Mark Ross’s Queen Bee and the Blue Hornet Band at The Chameleon in Lancaster and with the great Otis Clay and Billy Price at The Decade in Pittsburgh, and perform alongside national touring acts at prestigious festivals including Philadelphia’s Penn’s Landing Jambalaya Jam, Harrisburg’s Riverfront Arts Festival, and the Johnstown Flood City Music Festival.

Code: Blue reunited in 2023 and since then has been performing their unique blend of R&B, soul, blues, and a touch of gospel at top line venues, festivals, and community events throughout the region.
