   Tour '08 Info

Push Play wants to make a difference! That is why they have entered into their "Push Play for Purpose Tour" with zeal!
"We want to help this world in any way we can and if it means giving ourselves through our performance, well, why not," says lead singer and guitarist CJ Baran.
It's about helping those in need and they feel that if they donate their performance, it will help various fundraisers to make their goals in raising funds for their charity of choice.
"We have decided to take this winter and spring and make a commitment to play our hearts out," adds Steve Scarola, lead guitarist and keyboards. Push Play is certainly making strides in this area and wants the fan to know that they are beyond appreciative. "We can't believe the reception we've been receiving and while we are riding up the ladder, why not bring along as many as possible?" asks Derek Ries, drummer.
Be on the lookout for every benefit performance and keep in mind that Push Play is not just your every day band. "We are using our edge to make a difference and we think it is working unbelieveably well," says Nick Deturris, bassist.
And the people on the outside looking in are now agreeing! Keep Push Play on your radar and see the difference unfold!

CJ Baran
Lead Vocals, Rhythm Guitar, Keyboard
Birthday: 02/13/90

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.

Favorite food: Pizza

Favorite band: Cartel

Favorite movie: 40 year old Virgin

Favorite TV show: 24



Steve Scarola
Guitar, Keyboards, Background Vocal
Birthday 05/08/90

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.



Nick DeTurris
Bass
Birthday: 12/19/89

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!

Favorite food- pizza, taco bell, and burger king.

Favorite band- BRAND NEW! I've listened to them forever and their writing skills are super sweet, whether it's the lyrics or music.

Favorite song- "Jesus Christ" by Brand New

Favorite movie- too many to list. Anchorman, out cold, mighty ducks and many more!

Hobbies- hmm hockey, bass, music, school lol
