who is push play?
Push play is a band from Long Island NY. They have four members CJ [Christopher John] Baran, Steve Scarola, Nick DeTurris, and Derek Ries
Meet the Band:
CJ Baran-18, Vocals, Guitar, Keyboard"I picked up my first guitar when I was about 8 years old. I played it for a month and absolutely hated it! Then when I was 10 I picked my guitar back up to try to learn "All the Small Things" by Blink 182. I began to love the guitar. It became my life, an obsession. In the 6th grade I started my first band; however, there was one problem. We had no bass player. I met Nick on the first day of school. I nagged him everyday to buy a bass and join my band "Kaution". Finally, he cracked and got a bass for Christmas and joined the band. Kaution stayed together for about 4 years and then we took a break. Nick and I were recording at a studio in Long Island when we met Derek and Steve. We decided to form a band. We named the band Push Play."
Nick DeTurris-18, Bass"Let's see... how to begin? I am from Commack NY. My birthday is December 19th which happens to be my brother's birthday too considering we are twins. I live at home with my parents, brother and dog and if it wasn't for them and all their support I don't think I could have established myself as a musician like I am today. The reason I started to play bass was not actually for my love of music, I like to think that's the reason why I stuck with the instrument. The real reason I began to play was because CJ and I met in the 6th grade and he had a band named Kaution and they needed a bass player so he asked if I wanted to play. I had explained to him many times that I knew nothing about the bass, but he convinced me and I bought my first bass. I am basically self taught and I can't imagine life without my bass now. One day CJ and I were at a Recording Studio and we came across Derek and Steve. We all hung out, got to know each other, and jammed for the day. We decided that we should make a band together. So we did and its all history from there!"
Derek Ries-18, Drums"YO, what's good? My name is Derek but everyone calls me D-ROCK. I have been playing drums basically my whole life and have been in an endless amount of bands. I currently play in the musical group PUSHPLAY. Music is my life and I am extremely content that I get to share that feeling with my band members. I love fashion and chilling with my friends. I listen to music all day long no matter what I..m doing and the bands that I usually listen to are Death Cab for Cutie, Glassjaw, Every Time I Die, the Mars Volta, mewithoutYou., Fall Out Boy, Hella, Incubus, the Dillinger escape plan, the Killers.. Chyeahh, Pe@ce! -D-ROCK!"
Steve Scarola-17, Guitar, Backup Vocals, Keyboard"Hey whattup? I'm Steve and my story begins at home. I want to thank all the people who have brought music to my life, especially my family. I owe the world to my mom, dad and brother. Without their support and love, none of this would be happening. Music is a big part of my life both in and out of school. It all started at home with piano lessons at the age of seven. At the time Mozart, Bach, and Beethoven didn't hold my interest. I learned to play the saxophone and tuba in school and I taught myself how to play the drums just for fun. Playing guitar is my life. I'm into everything... rock, jam bands and a little Bob Marley always makes me feel good. My top five bands are Pearl Jam, Rage Against the Machine, All American Rejects, Brand New, and Dave Matthews Band. I started playing the guitar at the age of twelve and never stopped playing ever since. Not a single day goes by that I don..t play. Playing guitar has brought many opportunities my way. I work after school tutoring kids who want to learn how to play guitar. Push Play is by far the best musical experience yet. Playing with CJ, Nick, and Derek has been phenomenal. We work really well together; everyone appreciates and respects the others' talents. The rest has yet to be written. I'll fill you in when it happens. Peace."
