Rated PG took its name from the fact that all 4 members live in the Potomac Green (PG) Active Adult Community in Ashburn, VA. Tenor, Phil Merkel is a retired Air Force pilot who is used to being up high. As he is fond of say, "It takes a real man to sing like a girl." Bass, Ray LaTurno is a retired Naval Aviator who usually flew above the waves but doesn't mind going for the low notes. Lead, Clarence Holokai, born in Hawaii, is retired from the Army and still dreams of Waikiki. Baritone (Bari), Cliff Shoemaker didn't "retire" from the Marine Corps, but even though he only spent four years on active duty (many moons ago), "once a Marine, always a Marine." So you can see that these four gentlemen have a lot in common.

The other thing Rated PG members have in common is their love of singing and entertaining. If you are planning a special occasion, such as a birthday, anniversary, retirement, holiday, corporate, or any other kind of party, we can work with you to provide a tailored package of entertainment that fits the occasion.
