Paul DeBiase - (Drums, Vocals)


Founder of the Grand Central Station band, Paul is a true veteran performer, having played drums professionally in front of thousands of people over the course of the past 30 years. Paul gained a respect and passion for the percussive arts at an early age, and has studied with notable drummer Don Bush, percussionist for the Boston Pops Orchestra under the direction of world-renowned conductor Arthur Fiedler. An avid Rhythm & Blues fan who sites influences including Earth, Wind and Fire, Tower of Power, The Motown Sound and James Brown, Paul's first desire is to create a solid rhythmic canvas on which to paint music that entertains, involves and moves the audience. And, with section-mate and brother Frank DeBiase on bass (see below), Paul has developed a mastery of his instrument that has earned him the utmost respect of many of the region's top musicians

 

Frank DeBiase - (Bass)

Long a fan of the "Motown Sound" and the great California session bassists of the 60s, Frank began crafting his solid, driving bass style more than three decades ago. Ever since that time, he has continued to play, learn and refine, constantly striving to deliver the ultimate rhythmic performance in conjunction with his section-mate of 30 years (and brother), drummer Paul DeBiase. Always the "practical joker" of the band, Frank's shy, quiet demeanor belies a tremendous sense of humor, and a wealth of musical talent.any of the region's top musicians.

 

Bruce Guerineau - (Guitar, Vocals)

Over the course of his 25-year career, Bruce has consistently continued to develop as a top guitar talent. It was super-pickers like Eric Clapton, Wes Montgomery and B.B. King who first piqued his interest in the instrument, and ultimately led him to the Berklee College of Music in Boston. Following college, Bruce spent more than a decade honing his craft while touring the U.S. with several topflight bands that regularly performed 5 to 7 nights a week.

 

 

Bob Zampino - (Piano, Keyboards, Vocals)

An acclaimed pianist/singer/songwriter in his own right, Bob earned a "Billboard Magazine Certificate of Achievement" for a pair of compositions selected as part of the magazine's annual songwriter competition. It is his dynamic, live performance persona and incredible playing style that have endeared him to legions of fans, both musicians and listeners alike. A student of classical piano, Bob began his journey into music at age seven, studying with such noted instructors as James Early and Stanley Hummel. Since then, he has performed in several well known bands, including the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame 60's pop group the Rascals. It is his strong, dynamic style and electric personality that define much of the sound and scope of Grand Central Station
