The Kerri Edelman Show presents Classic Rock Band Shadowplay

In 2006, two middle school students had the crazy idea of being in a band together.  However, these two young men did not want to be in a band just for the sake of saying they were in a band. Lead singer Andrew Corkery and lead guitarist Dan Holden started a band with a dream. They wanted to be rock stars, but unlike so many others around them, Andrew and Dan knew that this is what they wanted to dowith their lives. To be perfectly honest, the band that originally became Shadowplay had no talent at the start and struggled along. Fortunately, they took their criticism constructively and used it to better themselves. The two aspiring rockers needed people with just as much drive as themselves, so they picked up George Legatos on guitar in 2007 and John Sellers on bass in 2008. In just two years, their musical progression was obvious.

In 2009, the original drummer left because of personal differences. Drummer Tim Bear had been keeping an eye on Shadowplay that year, and took advantage of this moment to join the band because he knew that this was different from just a regular high school band. Once Shadowplay picked up Tim Bear, the productivity of the band was immediate. They went to the studio to record their first five songs. Constantly playing shows and connecting with people all over the Philly area, the band has begun to make their mark on the world. Fresh out of high school, it's obvious that Shadowplay is something more. They intend on staying together for the long haul. And these five awesome rockers will continue to chase their dream until it becomes a reality; unlike the thousands of other bands that either give up or don't push hard enough. Their dream is inspire people with their music, and most importantly rock until the end of time. For more information, visit www.shadowplayrockandroll.com
