Who We Are
In the heart of SoCal lies Santa Clarita, home of the PLYRz. As irony would have it, it is also home to a thriving music scene, and the hard-hitting PLYRz play a major role. The members of The PLYRz, who have breathed sonic fire into otherwise quiet suburban streets, agree that few know about it. "Santa Clarita’s a killer music scene," says bassist Scott Marshall, "but it's just not a great club scene. There's like one or two good clubs like "The Lab" or "The Studio". But the lack of a proper local outlet for the group to unleash their unique brand of musical fury hasn't stopped them. "When you're a new band that's been at it for thirty years, it's hard to convince clubs to let you play and pay you." says Marshall, "I mean, nobody minds playing for free most of the time, but it's nice to get paid." Just as the band refuses to be pigeonholed sonically, they also remain abstract lyrically, preferring to express themselves more in a stream-of-consciousness fashion.
The music of The PLYRz is nothing short of a complete aural rush. better check your pulse.
The Band
Kirk Marshall
Guitar / Vocals
Imagine a musical frontier with no boundaries, no limitations, no restrictions. Allow us to unveil that very artist, Kirk Marshall. He first began playing guitar sometime in the last century, finding inspiration in the work of musical non-conformists. His love of 'left of the dial' mavericks profoundly impacted his own artistic direction. "I'm not a musical snob. My record collection is one big mess."
Scott Marshall
Bass / Vocals
Bassist, author/educator, writer and producer began his musical career in his early teens by starting on trumpet, two years later, he switched to French Horn and began studying with renown French horn player/educator/composer Hugh Jass. This lead to numerous awards in district and state level competitions.
Chet McCracken
Drums
Drummer and percussionist, Chet's middle name should be versatility, or, completely bored when playing with the PLYRz. Chet’s exciting rhythmic energies add color and mood to any musical performance. He’s also comfortable playing in the pit of a Broadway show, or even with the PLYRz.
Kent Marshall
1st String
Kent began his music career in the spring of 1987. Kent retired from music in the summer of 1987 to concetrate his efforts on finding the next "Thing". As a master of R&D he had found his niche. Although he still searches for the next "Thing", he has found many other things along the way. His contribution to the PLYRz is without measure.
Frank Vonder Reith
Security / Web Admin
Frank started in the Information Technology field in 1992 because as he put it, "I wanted to be able to make a living sitting on my ass." After becoming successful in IT Frank thought of sharing his secrets and began writing a book. This was a failure do to the fact he has no writing skills. A seminar tour was next, until he tought, screw them, let 'em figure it out on their own!
Dave and Jim
Pilots
Dave and Jim, what can you say about these two? I'll try. They have to be the most inept pilots in the sky. They have landed planes in the water, landed at the wrong airport, flown to the wrong country, and both suffer from ADD. We are not even sure if they have licenses.
