From a Blue Devils B Winter Guard Press Release

The Blue Devils B Winter Guard is bringing visual pop art to life with its 2018 show.

In the 1950s, artists such as Roy Lichtenstein and Andy Warhol challenged the traditions of the fine arts by using imagery from popular culture in their work. By showing a new perspective of advertising, comic books, and mundane cultural objects, the pop art movement celebrated everyday items as well as the mechanics of creating the piece through color and repetition.

In the spirit of this movement, Blue Devils B Winter Guard will challenge the style of the winter guard activity visually, musically, and through the use of color. Performers will bring the style to life on the 2018 winter guard stage through the upbeat music of “Platinum Rows” (Tyondai Braxton) and “Pah-Paka” (Shugo Tokumaru).

Blue Devil B Winter Guard is scheduled to attend the WGI Union City Regional and the WGI San Diego Power Regional.

The guard's staff includes Ricky Contreras-Esco, Jaydee Stark, Adrian Bazua, Jackson Contreras-Esco, Gustavo Morales, Jay Murphy, and Becky Terry.
