About
Persei (pronounced "percy eye") is a five-piece pop-punk band coming by way of Staten Island, NY. The collective consists of Jonathan Cutrona (vocals/guitar), Mike Maldarelli (vocals/guitar), Nick Millus (guitar), Andrew Maino (bass) and Sergio Gorno (vocals/drums). Pulling from their diverse musical backgrounds, the band incorporates varied elements from the broader alternative genre to create their distinctly multifaceted, emo-leaning sound. Founded in 2018, Persei dropped their debut EP, 117 Whatever Street, followed by their sophomore EP, Idle Moments, in 2019. Fresh off the heels of their second release, the group was announced as winners of <a href="spotify:artist:51J0q8S7W3kIEYHQi3EPqk" data-name="Bayside">Bayside</a>'s national Battle of the Bands contest. They went on to play alongside the iconic punk-rock band, as well as <a href="spotify:artist:5l1QyUoZFlqTKJ1NrbCTu1" data-name="Sincere Engineer">Sincere Engineer</a>, at Brooklyn’s Music Hall of Williamsburg in November 2019. In 2020-21, Persei released three additional singles: “Wake”, “Write Me Off”, and "A Way Out" with Gary Cioni at Sound Acres Studio. In early 2021, Persei was featured in Alternative Press' "10 Unsigned Pop-Punk Bands You'll Wish You Had Discovered Sooner" and later that year, supported <a href="spotify:artist:5vV4gEs3O35SdrdwhvhYwe" data-name="Homesafe">Homesafe</a> on the NYC date of their November tour, later going on to support <a href="spotify:artist:0iMnpaEHXkgMT956CmP1kj" data-name="The Dangerous Summer">The Dangerous Summer</a> in 2022. In 2023, Persei returned to Sound Acres Studio with Gary Cioni to mix/master their self-produced LP. The band's debut full length album "What's Left Inside" is OUT NOW.
