Here are some apps to suite your needs: Tactile Player – Control Android Music Player Using Hard Buttons

"Tactile Player is my favorite tool which gets the job done and I must say, this one is a must for any music addict who wants to change songs using Android’s hard buttons or play/pause the current playing song. When you are listening to music and don’t want to unlock Android’s lock screen, simply enter the following commands

Press the volume up button two times to play the next track. Press the volume down button two times to play the previous track. Press the power button three times to pause or play the currently playing soundtrack. It works and the best part is that there are no settings and absolutely no configuration required on your music player app. The only catch is that the Tactile player app must run in the background or else the default music player app won’t be able to receive your commands via the volume and power buttons."
